Willie,

It's interesting that the FRS radios are actually prohibited in the scout camps in your area. So far the only limitations we have encountered (S. CA) re radios has been a restriction of certain channels/frequencies to the staff or for emergency calls. In fact, they were very useful at our last OA camp. Many troops were using them. Yes, I know they're not traditional scout camps. But, for whatever the reason, I haven't felt the need to use them at some of our other camps, such as long term camp. However, I do expect to be using them more often based on our good experience. I hope you get a little more freedom to use them.

Good luck,

John
