[NCARC] looking for a couple of APRS trackers

[Bryan Bibeau]

Hey All,
I'm short 2 APRS trackers for this years Never Summer 100k up in Gould this weekend.  We'd like to have tracking capabilities for the sag wagons moving supplies between aid stations.  There is very limited cell service up there so APRS is very helpful.  Anybody have a spare APRS portable tracker that we could borrow?  Ideally something that sets up easily and can support an external antenna connection.  I'll take personal responsibility for anything borrowed, and will return it in the same condition as borrowed.  I'm heading up to Gould Thursday morning to set up for the event so would need this by Wednesday evening.
Also, if anybody has an interest in last minute volunteering, we are still hoping to find help for our Ranger Lakes aid station.  Currently it is only partially staffed.  There is camping available, and this is a fun event to take part in!  A great opportunity to practice your ARES skills over a long period of time.  We will be running a repeater on Gould Mtn, so an HT will work from the Ranger lakes aid station.
Ranger Lakes Aid Station (62): 4:30pm (Saturday) to 5:30am (Sunday) (Split into 2-3 shifts) 
This station is easily accessible off of Hwy 14 just 2 miles down the road from the finish. We have 2 camp sites reserved across the road from the aid station so volunteers can stay on site and work in shifts through the night.
