Aw guys, here in OKLA we're starting our new year off with 63 f, a little overcast and have a slight chance of rain. Tom, I know what you mean about accidents and radio play getting cut short. I run my old RCI 5054DX mobile in the CVPI and have had to cut a QSO short going out on a call <grin>. Y'all be safe out there on the ice. Doug KD5VHZ
