Default Tow Signals

ups.com...
Radios are great but... Radios DO
malfunction... Transmissions DO get walked on...


Parachutes sometimes fail to open, but you still see plenty of them around
gliderports.

And... you don't get
too much for $200- in a portable. That being the opinion of someone
that does radio for a living.


From someone else who does radios for a living, I respectfully disagree.
My little $230.00 Vertex ricebox compares well to some of the stuff my employers
pays $ thousands for! Why would anybody fly without a radio?
