I thought I recalled you having to drive a bit to get signal. Maybe I'm thinking something else.
My phone works in parts of the mountains up there and works fine in town, but on the actual dragon it doesn't, atleast the areas I pulled it out and looked, I wasn't exactly paying a lotta attention to it.
An older tri band phone (has analog) probably has a better chance of catching a signal up there.

Except hearing you and brad talking to each other for a few minutes.
Yeah, I know. I was quite embarrased about that.

Remember it was well back on our way to Maryville before we got signal again. Brad and I have Verizon, and we didn't have signal at all. Jim tried to let us use his ?Cingular? it didn't work either.

Same here. I did make a call from the 'Overlook' at the dam, but never checked anywhere else on the Dragon.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Here is a vid on the deal's gap yahoo group. NWS b/c of langauge. http://www.twistedlimit.com/cbr/Twistedlimit317.WMVI don't know why those people in the truck or whatever it is were going so slow, but then the squids were a LOT more stupid than the sight see-ers. But it's funny they're afraid they're gonna get beat up by the bikers.

Hello Everyone, A group of BMW's plan to travel through the TOD on the same dates you've planned and I would like know if this is okay with your group. I can see from the details of your thread that you are a large group and experienced.  We do not want to clash with your group so I send this post to get some feedback. Thanks, GMAN
Enjoy the drive...

Should not be a problem GMAN. Public road, so everybody is welcome. In addition to that, it has been my experience that the CEGers break up into smaller groups to run the Dragon to minimize clashes with other traffic and allow those with varying levels of enthusiasm run at a comfortable pace.
Not to worry, & welcome to CEG!
