Frequencies for Race Radio

[BigGriff023]

I have the Baofeng UV-5R Dual Band Two Way handheld Radio. I'm wondering what channels everyone typically operate on during runs? (Raptor expeditions, expedition x offroad, etc). I'm not sure if the pre programmed stations are used, or do I manually have to enter them in?

You'll want these ones for sure:

151.820 MHz GLRE001
151.880 MHz GLRE002
151.940 MHz GLRE003
152.000 MHz TRR1
152.750 MHz TRR2

Out west you don't want to leave home without weatherman programmed; ExO, ROC, and Raptor Expeditions use it by default.

Everyone uses it - which is why you'll also need to program as many from that radio thread as you can stand. There's been a few trips where we'll move into an area with chatter on weatherman, so we jump to another band.
