I added an MP3 player to it from one of my kids old ones and so I have now gone Hi-Tech (lol-lol) But along with C-Money, I too use a lot of hand calls because the batteries just do not seem to die at the wrong time..

:yeah:

I received my custom programmed Spitfire this past Friday. Nice unit for $200.00 but, definitely NOT waterproof.

Post by: Big Valley on January 24, 2010, 01:49:28 PM: I do the foxpro in bag thing too when I'm in a pinch but don't call to much in the rain, it seems to be quite a bit less productive. Dave
