Would anyone be interested in getting together for a Batlabs dinner on friday night? Bring ur radios and show off what you got
it seems each year, most of the batlabs guys stay in the area of miller rd...
Last year i met a group of guys at the golden corral on miller road, it really wasnt hard to get a seat like some members suggested it would be.
i have made a list of all the eating establishments on miller road i could find i have included them below,i think the list represents a full range of eating interests.

[MT2000 man]

I might be going this year again ( with the same friend who came along last year ). Only this time, we won't be staying at the Days Inn ( NIGHTMARE !!! ). We arrived late on Friday, so the only real day we had was all day Saturday, and we left late Saturday night to head back to RI. This time around we'd be leaving Thursday morning, arriving Thursday evening, and then depart Sunday AM.

If I do go, I'll be bringing my FPP XTS5000R UHF radio with me. Along with some Jedi toys.

[kd8ses]

I am looking for a xts 500 VHF FPP at Dayton this year

[KitN1MCC]

i will be at the DMR-MARC booth

[Jay]

I've been going for almost every year for the last ten years. I've always used P25 to talk to other batlabs peeps, and observe some of the chaos on the various freqs.

Is anyone using any TRBO simplex freqs that they want to share? There seems to be quite the migration from P25 to TRBO amongst a lot of the hobby crowd.

Jay

[radioactive69]

I'll be there listening on VHF and UHF channels already listed above in mixed mode or P25.
There was questions about xts or apx for sale being there: there have seen some in the past. Caution on those trick flashcodes I have seen make me nervous.
I am hunting for quantar parts like CLN6961 and CLN6955

[123]

Thanks to all that logged in. Till next time...

[ledzep11]

.... Only this time, we won't be staying at the Days Inn ( NIGHTMARE !!! )..

I didn't think it was that bad last year, 'til they tried to stick me in a room that had no A/C. They changed my room, but I know that hotel was booked solid, and I cant help but to wonder what poor soul got stuck with that hot ass room. Oh well, I will be back there this year, anyway.

[MTS2000]

I'll be there all three days except Saturday I will only be there til around 11:30. I will be at the Dial Radio Club booth out in the Flea Market area space 3201-08.
