    For the annual Appalachian Golden Packet event this Saturday, we still
    need someone with a D700 or D710 to drive up to the Hawksbill Observation
    point and provide a very critical digipeater in the 4 hour event. (Maine
    to Ga APRS packet exchange).

    This site is East of Harrisonburg on I-81 and SW of Manassas, VA. See: http://aprs.org/hamtrails/hawksbill.html
    Actually, we have a volunteer but he does not have a D700 or D710 radio to
    be the digipeater (both 1200 and 9600 baud).

    It's a 4 hour event form 1100 on Saturday until we make the link or no
    later than 1500.
    Bob, Wb4aPR

    This is essentially NOS. I purchased it from another ham a couple of years back and did not open anything, except to read
    the instructions.

    I will be in DN46 from July 21-14 and will attempt contacts.

    I am restarting in ham satellites (last contact was in 2003 or so from
    BP64) with the same Arrow antenna and Icom Z1A.

    Bear with me as I fiddle and fumble.

    What do you all suggest as the best sats to operate?
