Alister, Just use the full FB call, including the '26' bit - this will set you apart from your canadian counterpart.

Re: operating mobil in canada 1/8/11 to 25/8/11
which part you going to? I've been over twice! west coast, Vancouver and southern BC, also Alberta and Calagary,
VERY wierd driving through a TIME ZONE change! 100 metres up road your 7 hours behind, 100 metres the other way your 8 hours behind!
Remem there NOT Amercians! there Canadians!
they DONT like it!
PS watch out for the Bears! Im being serious!
have a GREAT time,

Re: operating mobil in canada 1/8/11 to 25/8/11
Brilliant, brings back memories!
Lake louise is stunning!
your probably pass the HOT springs near Banff,
If I remember?
a refreshing dip, open to public!
KELOWNA? I think you may want to drive through there, and out the OTHER side
what are the truck (vhf frequencies)?
also Ocanagon I think it's spelt? is a Big orange growing region,
you can E-mail me direct [email protected] if you on HF bands some time?
