I remember the first time I used an LM385. I live in a very remote, very
hilly part of India.

 
Sounds interesting. What are the coordinates?
 

My house is at about 23.723°N 92.7173°E which is on the southern side of
the state capital, a city of about 300K. The state is one twentieth the
size of California, sandwiched along most of its north-south length
between Bangladesh on the west and Burma to the east.

Most of the state is on steep hillsides, with few flat and level areas.
The aerial distance to the sole airport in the state is about 14km and
31km by road. It used to be 43km before they found a way to bypass the
worst parts.

Indigenous people make up roughly 90% of the population and have little
in common with mainstream India.

Lots of motorcycles driving on the wrong side of the street.

Looks like fun, riding on those hilly streets.

San Francisco is hilly too. Kamakazies skateboard down the hills.
