I'm also praying for them. One question is that a PRO-106 scanner?

@monotroy, I had 3, a pro 94 and a 396xt on the field , and a bc 895 at the office recording audio, was spending more time trying to tune the scanner than on filming, that is why the camera was moving around so much and shaky.

Today the decision was made to put Amanda on "Comfort Care". Please send prayers to Kyle to give him the strength to find his way through this.
