Ok, here is a question for all. I normally hang out on channel 19 when on the road to listen to the truckers, and it being the 'main' channel. Is there another channel people use, or a 'Prevost' channel?

The Marathon channel is 26 but don't tell the Liberty people.

Channel 19 just because the truckers use it. There have been many times I have had an alert about accidents or traffic stops ahead that allowed me to take a quick look at a map and jump onto an alternate route. I had a trucker tell me I was on fire because I monitored channel 19. If I am running with another coach we may decide to remain on 19 or may selct an alternate channel, but when alone I am always on 19.

I really dislike the language and the idiotic remarks, but having the ability to get advance notice of what's ahead, or to have someone communicate something important to me outweighs the downside. Maybe because I have been a pilot I can literally tune out most of the negative stuff like language and dumb remarks, but I am on full alert as soon as I hear "stagecoach" or "motorhome" or Prevost on the CB.

My sentiments exactly! Think I'll stay on 19.

Ditto here. You may recall my story about leaking diesel fuel on the NY side of the GW bridge approach. Fortunately I was tuned to 19.

Is there any interest in a computer class at POG IX ? I am computer challenged and would like to learn more about how to navigate on this Forum and post a picture. If someone would hold a class we could take our laptops to a central location and learn .

Also how to use " Speel Chick. "

[pwf252]

I would attend that class if given.

When the board gets quiet..........you know they are on their way.
