Communications
Last year Toph and I invested in decent radios. We bought these and had pretty satisfactory results. They cost us about $60 for a set of two.
I reccomend that someone else buy another set (giving us pretty much enough radios for every hunter to have one). This exact brand and model is not really necessary, but you need them to be FRS/GMRS band.
Technically this band requires a license which one simply purchases from the FCC. I bought one and it covers family, including inlaws. Since Toph is married to Becca and Ryan is a cousin, and CP is married to our other sister [insert name here], I guess we can all operate on my license.
I did a lot of research on these radios last year, so if anyone wants more information let me know.

I am interested. Let's see where I can get the same thing for a decent price. Please email me info at rancher@iw.net
Re: License. I don't know how this works - but since CP is married to (inset name) and since (inset name) is Judy's daughter and since Judy (while not being my first cousin) is married to me.
Man, thats some family we've got!
Right Rog, you got it...
Your options are buy a license, or divorce Judy and marry a cousin.
Mine, yours, whatever.
Ours are Cobra LI 6000-2 WX VP radios. I think they may have stopped making them though, even the manufacturer is out of stock and Cabelas doesn't sell them anymore. Any 2 way GMRS radio should do. Look at Cabelas then search the net.
Do you two have two or four radios?
Pat owns 2 and I own 2. They generally come in pairs.
