Hey Al, glad to have you guys in the neighborhood. Two local repeaters of
interest are 146.655/- 131.8  in Elizabeth City and 146.835/- 131.8 in
Columbia on the UNC-TV tower at 1200'.

I guess you guys will travel down 13 through the Eastern Shore???  If you
are 6m mobile, how about give a call once and a while as you pass thru FM27.
Of course you could be going I-95, also. As soon as you clear the VA state
line, you'll hit the .655 machne with no problem and it'll carry you to the
OBX. Theres several repeaters on the beach itself, a couple with Echolnk.

I'm trying to set up a field trip to FM13, just south of Wilmington NC this
fall. Anyway, good luck and we'll listen for you on the way down.
