    I ran my P Mono in the lake behind my house and it works. I was afraid the spectrum radio and receiver would be an issue. Worked fine. Wish I didnt have to work tomorrow so I could give it a proper test and tune it in. Have to wait till the 2nd sunday next month

    If it will make you feel any better, it was so hot that we couldn't really enjoy it.

    YEAAHHHH Im on line again!! Trying to post from my phone isn't fun to me so I waited til we were back up and running.

    Move went pretty well. Livin outta boxes mostly and sleepin on an air mattress but its all good.

    Hope to have Hughs boat done for the weekend and Joes as well but cant promise. As well as I tried to mark boxes, ive misplaced A LOT of tools, glue, parts boxes etc etc... and there is no where to get it out here in the sticks. At least I have their hulls sitting where I can see them

    See you Sunday

    No he didn't, but I don't have a spare anyway. I've got two of those and both are in boats. Ron are you still here? are you going to Ackerman tomorrow?
