Hi Jay,

Hope all is well with you. I have an "off the wall" suggestion for you.
Hope you don't think that it's too nutty. I'm not a pilot or aircraft
owner. I'm just a "garden variety aviation nut" who really likes the
concept of your inn.

As I've been looking at your site, I was thinking that something was
missing. Have you ever thought of installing a "Unicom Style" base
station, for your inn, with its own discrete freq? Given your
operation, it might be a dynamite idea to have a freq available so that
if a pilot is transiting your area, they could give you a call to see if
you have space available for an evening stay (i.e.: an "airborne
reservation").






Just use 122.75 or 123.45. Nobody else uses those anyways.


Good idea, but 122.75 can be real busy on a nice day. Been there, done
that.

Out here in Phoenix, 122.85 and 122.75 are used in the southern and northern
practice areas respectively.
