    Default Ham Radio and the AT

    I know this is not everyone's cup of tea but thought I would post the link in case anyone sees this operation and wants to know what is going on. http://aprs.org/at-golden-packet.html

    Good to know that someday when humanity is digitized and uploaded to the cloud that our 'packets' will still be able to thru-hike the AT.

    Thanks for the link MoyToy

    My call sign is N4AUD. I've never taken any sort of ham radio on a hike but I have talked to a couple of hikers on 2 meters. I'm not into code but one of those tiny QRP rigs in a tuna tin and a piece of wire to toss up into a tree might be fun. I've never done APRS either this seems interesting.
