Big day had by the boys..... Lochie (4)( Propeller tail ) and Smooch (3)( Poo eating weirdo).. The most gorgeous Lily (12 years old ) .... Loves almonds, apple skins and apple doughnuts ( the Japanese peeler/spiralizer gets lots of work ) scratches around the neck and having her hand held....

I did a tour of Islay late last year, six distilleries in two days, whisky at breakfast was quite lovely! Stayed overnight IN Bowmore distillery, beautiful until the peat smoking was started up.....

I have done a lot of recording in surgery over the last few years, my set up with cos-11 into lectro has never had problems from any high frequency medical equipment, including the cauterising systems. The smell does put me off meat for a while ( usually only lunch.... )

If one of your group has a drone get through before them, there weird shaped batteries attract to much attention and get the agents a bit over zealous with ordinary VLocks.... from experience.....

I like the term "Agency Bling" for IFB units....

Parked at an Alice Springs hotel...

Have a great one Jeff! All the best!

Does anyone know what the dimensions of the Lectro spring clip fastening set screws ( part number 28832 ) are? I've been searching but not finding... http://www.lectrosonics.com/US/Products/product/116-28832.html

I think that the production folk who book the flight for you need to clarify and get an authorisation note from each airline.

My favourite boom... takes a bit of getting used to, the angle can snooker you sometimes..

I like the idea of a two bay version for my 633 bag.

I worked on an international doco with the cam assist flying his drone ( great shots!) and as I couldn't do sound while it was up I helped him set up ( ahhhh, my inner nerdiness! ) He let me fly it as thanks, but boy did he generally pucker up when he thought I was heading straight for the mountain side!! We had problems getting his batteries through security occasionally due to their being odd shapes and sizes, so I made sure I got through ahead of him....

Thanks VAS.

I am very impressed with the Orca bag, great build and the internal frame makes it feel solid. I've teamed it up with the Stingray harness, best of both worlds IMHO
