radios

, well, copy, I can hear you guys jumping the gun there, so I'll get back to you in a moment. Oh yeah, we're having a great time here, probably two more fun things we should all have. Copy that guy right, you're clearer right there than when you left, you see the Colorado River from uh, right where I am now too, so we're falling towards the canyon, now the Colorado River just comes into view, my goodness .

This is beautiful up here, what an incredible place and these

radios

, how clear it is, we are at 9.2 miles. I've been talking to him as if he were right next to me. This is incredible. We'll talk to him about the 10 Mile Marker as we go down a little further and see how we go. Look at the beautiful river. We just passed mile marker 10. The Colorado River is in our sights. We only have one mile left to go and we will continue. getting to the rim of the grand canyon of the north this is amazing i can't believe we're talking like this yeah i mean you're pretty clear i mean a little static but given the fact that you're over all those mountains and going down is really really awesome 100 just a little bit of static on this end but still easy to hear you ryan do you read me?

Yes, I'm in control, no problem, okay, let's set up a shot when we understand that we're almost here, I'm going to get out of the vehicle, I'll call you on the radio and he'll get out of the jeep while I'm talking to you, so we're going to set up a little take here on that. great painting okay copy that so we've been going up and down all these beautiful canyon roads and we're finally here on the rim of the grand canyon overlooking the colorado river. You know, a lot of radio stations would find it difficult to go that far.

We are 11 miles away, let's see how well they hear us at base camp. This is the recognition of the path. How does your speed end? We read you about a 4x5 uh, crystal clear and just a little bit of static Lima Charlie just a little bit of static but considering how far away we are and how diverse the train is, I'm very impressed with these Midland radios, yeah, without doubt, it sounds great, so I'm going to go ahead and close it on my side, you go ahead and close it. sounds good on your side, let's go back and see you in a good copy, that open man, that's impressive, all of you Brad, you're at the bottom of a big drop halfway to the Grand Canyon. now and he has the 575, so he has this version of unit with all the controls on the microphone yesterday.

I had this particular radio inside my truck when we were heading here and it was 13 miles in the other direction at one of what we call at a school and brad could hear me where he is right now in the grand canyon, so he could hear me at 13 miles from there from where I am now and he's another 11 12 miles and he went down all these hills and valleys and then fell into The Grand Canyon is cool. I will definitely be sure to keep this radio. I know Midland said we're supposed to send them back to them, but I think I'll call them and tell them.

I'll take this radio, see you on the other side, guys, take care of yourselves.
