The only problem with an official channel is - are you supposed to leave your radio on all day to see if anyone calls.
Why Channel 5? Wouldn't 13-something be better since it's a higher frequency?
The regular Killington group (those that post on www.killingtonzone.com - formerly killingtonchat.com till K-mart pulled the plug) is on 2-11. There's quite a bit of activity on that channel that you'll probably not want to listen to as some of the members can get quite chatty.Quote:

Ummmm, if you had a radio, wouldn't you leave it on all day?Quote:

So if I turn on my radio someone will call me? Does it work the same with cell phones?Quote:

Maybe you need new battaries. With a good charge I can leave my radio on all day no problem. Broadcasting is what sucks the juice out of the battaries.Quote:

Another sarcas-O-meter gone awry.
Please, people, think of the children.
fuck, I'll just shout strange phrases into the winter forest.
Kinda like a mobile sig.
