Have a friend who works in a sporting goods store, he's the one that turned me onto the victorinox swiss tool... He's the type that has every cent, already spent, and has owned them all.. thats the one he stuck with... And he gave very poor reviews to the gerber multi-tools, said he had seen many of them brought back in with the end of the pliers broke off... defect? weak steal? who knows... Swisstool would prolly suit your catburgularing around best just kidding hehe

Victorinox Swisstool... Hands down...

Even though i've read it many times, thus being a waste of weight..Mine would have to be my very old copy of the complete walker by Colin Fletcher... Seems to get me in the right mindset to enjoy each step and sight...

I agree... Even on backpacking trips with my handheld two meter ham radio i can swap to higher gain antennas and get much better range... and on the occasion of band openings have talked hundreds of miles with a 5/8 wave telescopic bnc antenna... Endless amount of things and ideas to play with... could even carry a hand held beam antenna on your pack and really get out there... www.qrz.com www.arrl.com www.wtars.org www.mfjenterprises.com..... Tech license was very easy to get, with practice tests on the qrz webpage.... If you are interested in radio, you owe it to yourself to check it out... Nothing compairs, all the frs, gmrs are just expensive toys that i wish i had some money back on to get some new ham antennas with:) I mean check out some of the radios you could get and talk one after passing one 35 question test... http://www.yaesu.com/indexVS.cfm?cmd=Displ...mp;isArchived=0 http://www.yaesu.com/indexVS.cfm?cmd=Displ...mp;isArchived=0 http://www.yaesu.com/indexVS.cfm?cmd=Displ...mp;isArchived=0 and some of the antennas you can put on them... http://www.mfjenterprises.com/Product.php?productid=MFJ-1712 http://www.mfjenterprises.com/Product.php?productid=MFJ-1763 www.hamradio.com good site for prices on ht's ( handie talkies) or mobiles or whatever... Great companion hobby to geocaching, makes geocaching outings alot more enjoyable to me... Knew absoloutly very little about radio when i passed the test ... Have learned very much since, very willingly and enjoyably... Nothing has helped my spelling though would love to help anyone interested getting their license, just drop me a line...
