Starting Letter Pile:B B B B C C C C C C D D D F G G G H H J L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L M M M M M M N N N N N N P P P P P P P P R R R R R R R R R R R R R R R R R S S S S S S S S S S S S T T T T T T T T T V V = 1. A---O-A-E = 2. -A-O-E-E- 3. -O--A-- Backpackers love its guidance = 4. -E-E--IA- --O-E = 5. -O-I-A-E Analog calculator for Jupiter's moons = 6. -U--E-- -E-E- Cannon elevation device = 7.
