The more that jump to 2.4, the less using 72. The "moron" factor is thereby
reduced on 72!!
I haven't had a problem on 72 and have only witnessed maybe 6 shootdowns in 40+
years of RC.

Would you rather fly where only one person can shoot you down or where it
would take 40? (grin) 2.4 and lovin' every minute of it.. Brian

The only type of contest I know of that is pretty unlimited in amount of
transmitters out is a soaring event. I have counted 32 planes in the air at
Visalia. Could be more at times.
I could be wrong but most events (powered aircraft) limit the amount of
transmitters out (based on flight stations) at any one time. The IRCHA heli
event may be an exception.
I had heard the magic number for 2.4 is 41. Who knows for sure. That is one
reason why I'm not ready to completely abandon 72 mhz.
