Maybe we could get some email addressess from QRZ.com and email them about the AT award. Of course then at least one would flame you for spamming them. Recon its worth a shot ? Its your ball game Ron what do you think ? I have been trying to advertise the AT award as much as possible. There are probably many many hams close to the AT who are not aware of it. I put a link to it on my webpage. Sounds like a good weekend backpacking trip. Camp on the line. Operate that evening for a couple hours in WV. Then get up in the morning, move a few ft. and operate a couple hours in Md. I am not a winter backpacker unless the night can be spent in a Potomac Appalachian Trail Club Shelter. I wonder if there are any on the line ? I could do that this summer. Shoot maybe Ron and I could meet there for a weekender. I might even get brave and do it this winter. ................ BBRRRRR .... probably not. :-) BTW a new award is being developed by the ARS in Europe. Hoping to go world wide I have worked up a beginning plan for Virginia. Its based on the IOTA sort of. It is SOTA Summits on the air. Check it out at http://www.qsl.net/ars-eu/ We are thinking that the US will be an intity and broken down into regions. Each state being a region with a regional manager. Anyone interested can join the reflector to help plan the award. Should be alot of fun for folks who like to work from mountain tops or work those on mountaintops for awards.
