Icon134 0 #2 April 30, 2006 I can't see why it would be a problem... Students wear 2-way radios all the time, I know a fair number of jumpers that carry cell phones on jumps (it is highly recomended for balloon jumps and Night jumps) I imagine the RF signals from these devices far exceed anything a simple HR monitor puts off... you might search the Cypres Website for techincal information... but I wouldn't be conserned.Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

Cypres has never given me an error of any kind. Fun to watch the HR spike right before I go out the door, then flatten out, then eventually, drop back to normal. :D_______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"
