Phone your friends and ask them how laundry day is going!
I was surprised when my brother had service near Fernie. We had to phone a friend and rub it in - good snow and sunny all day.

Tom - You should have come with us! :D

Thanks for your post. It's much easier to identify douches by their actions rather than their looks.

Both go hand in hand. One will override the other if the other is not present. LOL

Sorry boys, didn't mean to hurt so many peoples feelers. What can I say, I don't like the white sunglasses. Doesn't bother me alot if people feel I'm a douche because of it. Was bored surfing and this was what I thought at that moment in time.

Talking with a rep from orthovox he told me it does not effect it. It may make some static noise on the analog versions but it still functions properly. He even showed me. Not saying its a good idea to have multiple electronics on I always shut everything off including my phone but the frequency they picked to use was chosen for that reason nothing else interferes with it. Again not promoting leaving your other devices on. Why take the risk.

Does the cell phone interfere with the beacon all the time or just when you are using the phone?

it would be all of the time as the phone is constantly sending signals and recieving.

i agree with Maxwell and have heard simialr things.... but why risk it!! I wasnt even thinking as I never used to bring my phone but I like the cam so this year I brought it last few rides....
