[Do you use rechargable batteries?]

I use rechargables for two reasons. First, they are much cheeper than non rechargable batteries. The second reason is for ecological reasons. Geocashing has taken me to some of the most beautiful places in the world. I don't want to add chemically or trash to the extent I can. Recharging good rechargable batteries is a small cost for the monitary and substance waste I save.

[Any Ham Radio Operators Here?]

KC6ZNT, Mountain View, California. When I was a ham operator I took classes with the Red Cross for emergency operations to assist federal, state and local emergency agencies with their services. This assistance was well defined and our training also well defined. For those of us interested in both HAM Radio and GPS it would be exciting to combine both activities. To this end, maybe the Red Cross, and other emergency agencies, would work with us on a needs assessment to see if both interests could be of value to them.
