In a previous article, "Happy Dog" said:
Jot down freqs as you're handed off. It annoys them if they expect you to
call and you've forgotten, or mixed up, the freq. It happens.
Flip flop radios are a god-send when you go to a new frequency and nobody
answers. You can just flip back to the old frequency. Of course, since
nothing is perfect and everybody needs a backup, you should still write
down frequencies.
