Its a bit high now but nothing like what we saw last year
"a bit high"...
Will the first crossing coming in from Jasper be a problem if we didn't have any problems last year? (I'm assuming it's deepest there, right?)

yep ill be here.
The repeater guide does not show the location beyond the reference to the city. I will see if I can do a lookup by call sign on the net and see what information I can find.
the guide says the sponser is SEQUACHEE and I don't know if that's part of a name or what... I'll see what I can find.
EDIT>>>
It may be old data or damaged as you say...

The call sign is reigstered to an individual located in Jasper, TN.... but so far I dont see a reference to the actual antenna location. Looking at teh above mentioend link (MAP) there looks to be a number of repeaters in the area...of course their antennas are sitting up on tall masts while we will be at ground level. So output range would be one thing...being able to "hit" the repeater would be another. All of this is new to me so bear that in mind, also I know there is a lot of posting going on related to ham but while we have some people I would like to test and see what works or how well it works...

Heres the plan... Group One will meet at the shop Friday morning (Jan. 6th) leaveing the parking lot at 10 am central. Group Two will meet at the shop Sat Jan 7th at 9am cental. Let me know what day you are going so i know who to plan for and how many.
Hey Andy ill be there Friday morning (6th) . I'll leave Knoxville around 8:00 eastern . That way it will give me a little +/- time to get there.
I've been back and forth on pulling the trailer with wood. I'm one of those guys that likes a Damn good fire and dry wood. Lol. I guess you can say I'm a FIREBUG! The m416 doesn't have a pintle on it anymore but I think I can pull it on the trail and not have any trouble. I've never been there before so feedback on pulling it to the campsite would be great.

I'm still trying to get Andy Goode off his leash and come with me.
Yep.... I'll be there... Can I get an address or something?
If you want to meet up in Cullman and go from there your welcome to.... I generally leave Cullman, then through blount county to Guntersville, then to Scottsboro, then to Bridgeport and over to Jasper.
Often I'll stop near Scottsboro and have breakfast at Jacks and then over to the Wal-Mart for supplies iif needed.

I would think the trailer will be a big PITA. If you want to bring some wood we could split it up and carry it in. you are welcome to leave the trailer in my shop. Finding wood hasnt been much of a problem but a few good dry logs to get things started would be nice.

Sounds great Andy. I'm gonna just pack some in the truck . I forgot you said expedition style run.
Thanks Elbert, I'll plan on meeting you in or around Scottsboro... If I miss you then I will just see you in jasper.
Hi Andy,
