Well, I was feeling a bit productive this last couple weeks. I got my new Maha charger and 7 packs of 4 Eneloop NiMH batteries and distributed them through my gear.
I also bought an analog trunking scanner (RS pro-97 on sale for $150) so I can hear a lot of what is going on around us.
I'm now researching bags/backpacks as my old backpack just doesn't quite have enough pockets to really keep all my gear well organized.
