Wireless at Osh by
John T
This has been a recurring topic with no clear answers.
I say, hoof it over to the hilton. They have wireless for their guests.
There is no sign on page, but I have no idea what their range is.

As we were flying over to Newton, IA today, we started discussing icing and
snow -- something that we must constantly worry about in these parts for at
least the next 4 months.
As we were talking, we heard a "Flight for Life" 'copter on Unicom, which
got us to wondering how it is that these guys...

somewhere and be flying an airplane in the same sky and endangering people...
