[GCARC] can use ECHOLINK on cell phone - Radio Fox Hunt today

[Jim n2gxj]

For everyone that is going to enjoy the 1pm hidden transmitter hunt today,
a tip - you can always use Echolink on your Cell phone to connect and stay
connected to W2MMD-R while using your hand-held radio to hunt!
It looks like the hunt area posted includes lots of wooded areas, which
might otherwise make getting to Pitman repeater a challenge. Having
Echolink on cell phone to check-in so we know who is hunting, monitor
progress, and get hints if not found the transmitter within the allocated 1
hour might be useful.
They will also transmit hints FM simplex on the hunt frequency 146.565 as
near 2pm, if you are still hunting. If think you are fairly close, and need
help as 2pm approaches, just give an RF shout-out.
For reference, Hunt area as posted on our club website:

Let the fun begin!
Good luck everyone!
