Thank you, Montblack. Your suggestions pretty much fall into the general
approach of what we are going to do - just enjoy it.


To be clear, radio headset means AM/FM radio. They broadcast (EAA/OSH) all
day long on a local radio station.

As for the other kind of radio, I might not even bring my handheld (w/rubber
ducky antenna) to OSH this year. Not a "must have" item, and I find I turn
it on less and less each year.

There is the volunteer option - for free admission. g

If you're 20 miles away, swing by every other day and do what the locals
do - pull up a lawn chair at the local Hardee's, or across the street from
the post office, and watch the planes fly over your location. Around 6:30 pm
(in the Hardee's parking lot) is a VERY good spot. Cops will let you stay
there if you order something.

Another good (locals) spot is on the south end roads, near the Ultralight
Pasture. You'll be pulled off to the side of the road, in farm country,
watching the action. Calm air means more ultralights flying around.
