Another question :-)

What channel do most of you use to talk to other LDers?
 And..... if you see a red Baby Daze towing a black Jeep with two old geezers in it, please say hello!!! Just look for the Jersey plates.
We could be anywhere.

If I can figure out how to use Andy's old PowerBook, I'll try a homepage with pictures. I tried to get Andy with his computer but he wasn't willing to come with us. We're going to track down the Daisy Chicks and get some group shots.

See ya' down the road someplace.

We tend to be on CH30.  That's what the LD Caravan Club uses and I believe it's recommended in the LD user manual.  I've got CH30 posted on the back of our rig in case a trucker spots a problem with our rig or toad.
 I sometimes tune in the trucker channel (usually, but not always 19) if there appears to be a traffic problem.

This is one of those, "Why didn't I think of that!" ideas.  Thanks, Art.

Our manual 19th edition 1996 on page 29 # 3 states   channel 7 for both the "The Official Caravan Club Channel" as well to say Hi to a fellow Lazy Daze.

This might explain why when we were on the road no one replied to our hellos.....

would appreciate knowing what channel we really should use

Per the 2002 LD manual, the official LD Caravan Club CB channel is 30.  And according to the manual, channel 9 (called REAC-don't know what it stands for) is an emergency channel.

We had heard that the Caravan club used to use CH 7.  I didn't know that it was that recently.  I don't know why they changed.  But the caravans now use CH 30 and we tend to keep there while on the road.
There has also been an effort to make CH 13 the defacto channel for RVers (of all brands).  But from what I've read, very few people actually use it.

The Lazy Daze club changed to channel 30 a few years ago because there was getting to be a lot of traffic on channel 7 and made it difficult to communicate while at LD caravans.
