This will be my first group Dragon event, so please count me in! Thanks!

I have Motorola MH230r radios... Will they work or do I need something better for up there?

Welcome, you'll have an amazing time! We're not using privacy codes, so those radios will be fine.

If I ever get the Mamba working correctly she does need a dragon road trip again. Not fair to bring the Yellow car all the time. Do love the way it handles up there.
