Curious on how many of us out there are using radios, and of which type?
I've used blister pack FRS radios in the past and picked up a BCA Link earlier this year.
Some other areas around the country have established a common FRS channel for travelers in popular backcountry skiing locations. Something like that could work for Schweitzer BC and/or Stevens Peak area? Does Schweitzer's ski patrol already monitor the 9-11 channel?

(seems like too much radio chatter was the main complaint)
