[RC] Amateur radio at endurance ride - ark





The Va Highlands  Endurance Challenge will be this coming Friday and
Saturday for the first time.  A group of Amateur radio operators,
including my husband and myself, are organizing to provide communication
links for the ride.  The group asked me to ask RideCamp for any advice
that they may have for the radio operators.  We would like  to contribute
to this ride going smoothly and will be at the vet checks, the base camp
and at a few other places as needed.  The area the ride is being held in
is mountainous and cellphone coverage is not always possible.  We will be
using Amateur radio signal repeaters and have a couple of drag riders with
radios, too.

Any advice from riders or ride managers would be greatly appreciated!  We
are trying to think of all contingencies...

Thanks!!

Diane Coleman,  KF4PCX
