   frequencies, works around curves day or night, and motor vehicles tune in to   
   the frequency posted on the "Share the Road; Get Cyclist Alerts At AM 1090"   
   sign.

   motorist a clue as to the distance to the cyclist around the curve, hidden   
   behind trees, so 3 different frequencies at 3 different power levels could   
   more or less indicate 3    
   different ranges, 40 - 50 m, 25-35m and 5-20 m.
