Sounds great! I will be bring a PRC-25 and a PRC-6 for VHF FM, 51.00
We need to remember with this mixed technology (Old and New Family radios)
the "new family" like the PRC-25, PRC-77, RT-524's (VRC-12) and some
PRR-4's need to be operated with the squelch OFF or in "Old Squelch" mode.
That way we can Net with the RT-68's, PRC-6's etc. as well.
