We just had a cancellation of the operator at Comer's Rock leaving the
2000 mile long packet chain broken in SW Virginia. Comers ROck is a
driveup location (plus 50 yard walkup to the lookout with excellent 360
degree views). It is about 15 miles SW of Wythville, VA.
See site details: http://aprs.org/hamtrails/comers-rock.html
The event attempts to exchange 9600 Baud APRS packets along the
entire length of the Appalachain Mountain range from Maine to GA
using 14 temporarydrive-up packet digipeaters (Kenwood D7XX radios).
The event lasts about 4 hours from 1100 to 1500.
Using the factory installed 9600 baud APRS radios miniimizes operational
and setup risk for such a one-time event.

Let me know if you can help!
