[NJham] Pine Barren's Express Road Rally

Sat, 2 Nov 2002 17:06:56 EST

This is a very good event to be a part of.  Location problems in out of the 
way rural areas, people getting lost, vehicles stuck.  A major safety 
communications last year was a tow chain breaking, smashing through the tow 
vehicle window, and hitting a passenger in the head.

Amateur communications does really pay off in such an event.  

It is not a hard event to work and has major support of 4 area repeaters that 
all eagerly become dedicated to the event.

Contact Bill KC2CNB directly or I will pass along messages.
