> By the way, anyone know a good place to buy a strobe and a radio?
Besides West Marine, you might check out the strobe at the surplus store
on El Camino in Mountain View. This strobe is a militarized version
of the Firefly II. It is the same size and intensity, but more rugged
and slightly less expensive. The only disadvantage is it takes a special
battery instead of the 2 AA batteries used by the Firefly II. (Replacement
batteries are available.) I'm not sure about battery life, but I suspect
the special batteries last longer as well.
