Thanks Gene. Yes, I'm on that list. Still a relatively small number of GMC owners.

I should have been more clear in my description of Zello. It is a walkie talkie app for smart phones that doesn't require an amateur radio license. It can be used by all GMC owners! It uses the cel network, not over the air.
