I am in, I will bring my setup in, of which I have also offered to be in
use at the site, if we can get internet up there even better.  I will also
talk with Josh more about the Cellular option to get internet while we wait
for a hardline option.  Is there DSL to the site? is that option even
possible? if so we could get a $25 a month DRY LOOP DSL to bring the site
into the 20th century :) .

So glad people are looking into APRS more, I do as mentioned have a working
setup that I will bring with me, hope that I can get some internet via my
phone if I am not port blocked and we can run a demo!!

Excited as always......

Dean
