Anyone interested? What first had me thinking about it was cliffs on the 21st. Due to the rugged terrain and multiple park users in the same channel a secondary mode would be good. Secondly meet and greets. Let's face it we might not know each other if we passed each other on the street. Until we become more familiar a quick "what table you at?" Might be convenient.

So this is what I was thinking. Tinker you had a name in one of these threads. What was it? We will create a channel using that name. The password will be (in all lower case) wrangler.

So what are your opinions?? Here are some links....

Excellent idea. I vote yes.

Requires Wi-Fi or data, of which AT&T has poor coverage in that area. (As of last fall)

I don't think this replaces a CB, but a good idea outside of the park. CB is just about all that's going to work there I would think.

I have AT & T and don't have much of a problem. Besides it would be secondary to CB's if you have them. Plus can be used in route to cliffs.

Be nice to have a closed channel for our group. Even on longer trips. I am not going to Kessies but it can be used to communicate to a group from a different local until you get within CB range.

Not everyone has a CB. Same with this. If you don't have a smart phone or just don't wish to download the app that's fine. Not like it's required.

Yeah, its basically a walkie talkie using cell towers, like what Spring used to have with nettles service (may be still do)...supplemental and nice to have for group talk.....the call to talk is one to one or group right? So, if you call ryan or someone else, would the whole group get the call or you can chose individually vs. the group?

I have AT&T and the only places I've ever had issues was like next to a rock cliff in Colorado...

Ryan your phone hates you.

I've heard of this and I'm done for trying it.

I THINK the name you speak of Wingit was Lake Effect Off-road..?

 

[Ryan Angela]

Ok, whatever!
I downloaded it.

 

[Ryan Angela]

Who is creating the channel? I'm ready to chat!

 

[Tinker Bell Monster]

We're doing this now?!?

Oh WTF

 

[Wingit]

Done! Password will be wrangler. Once you find it you should just be able to put in password. If you have problems restart your phone. I read after download you may have to do that if app doesn't stay running.

 

[Tinker Bell Monster]

Ok Wingit and I are trying to figure this out...anyone else download it yet?

 

[Tinker Bell Monster]

Allmuscle.

Get in on this!

 

[Wingit]

Kinda neat.

 

[Tinker Bell Monster]

Brig me back to my Nextel days.
