Hey Buzz, just outa curiousity how did you come up with those channels? Might be kinds cool to have a standard Maggot/Minion Channel known to be used at all ski resorts/areas worldwide. That way, whenever your looking for change for a nickel, ya just hop on your radio.

Any thoughts?

it's always been 5-13, from what i remember.
this is the standard channel for all maggots.

I think those frequencies came from a.m. stations that play "Smooth Jazz" which came from Cletus' sexy voice. Which came from somewhere in his chest.

Musta missed that over the years. Rats.

Ehh, just bought the radios anyway, so no big deal.

5-13 it is then.

[Buzzworthy]

I got the same story, "it is what we have always used". I had no idea.

Now I do.

5-13 it is!!

4-19 is a channel I picked personally, never could hold out till 4-20.

It's 4:09 in the afternoon, your watching "Perspectives". I'm your host, Lionel Hutchins and with me, as always, is Doug Coombs.

I swallowed a marble in an attempt to frighten that proctologist.

Only downside to 5-13 is it is FRS only which is limited to 1/2 watt. Choose a channel 8 and up for one watt service.

I prefer channel 6-9 but 5-13 is fine for me

only problem with 4-20 is that every other stoner group uses it

[FreakofSnow]

"uh yeah..... are you there man?"
"uh yeah, whats your 20?"
"did you say 420?"
"no, but now that you mention it, hold on"
"come in woodchuck"....."come in woodchuck"
"cough, cough, hack uh yeah were you callin' ghostrider?"

[Yossarian]

fyi, the 5 came from Change for a Nickel, and the 13 from (un)lucky number 13

[Dexter Rutecki]

I thought that the very first time maggots used radios together we agreed on 4-21, since 4-20 is taken.

INCORRECT! FRS (Family Radio Service) channels 1 through 7 are shared FRS / IS-GMRS (Interstatial General Mobil Radio Service) and therefore your radio will broadcast at PEP above 0.5W on those channels if your radio is capable of it. Channels 8-14 are for FRS only and are therefor limited to a 0.5W PEP maximum.
