I have no advice on the FRS radios. Check with the regs for each
country. It will take you until early summer to sort them out.

Take any radio except a Sony unless it is in your carry-on. The ATS 606
should be funky enough to deter its theft. Anything wearing the Sony
label is a prime target for the black market.

The French don't hate Americans, just George Bush.

Have fun.

I will have fun. I'm Canadian so no worries in that dept. Not leaving
until late June, so planning early. I am looking forward to dial scanning
after long days of museums and cognac and beer etc.
