way cool...
you know the summit could apply for a event call sign if there was enough interest, I doubt we have enough hams around but just in case 
Otherwise it would be great to pick a person who has all types of comm and would be willing to be comm control. They would be responsible for keeping track of the freq/type of comm for each group in case of emerg on the trail. Each Trail leader/sweep would be given the cell number of this person and they could text/call the Comm Control before the group leaves staging with the type/channel/freq being used on the run.
Example:
Alpine Loop 0800 cb 12
Black Bear 0745 cb 14 ham 146.480
It sound complicated but all Comm Control would need is a cell phone, and a log book...of course this person would be a radio head by nature and more than likely have 1 of each type of radio
In the event of a group not returning or concern then comm control can try to reach out to them or if we hit the trail in search we would know what type/channel/freq to reach out on.
Just my thoughts and I would be happy to help if needed. |
Excellent suggestions Lance

Once I get the lat/lon for these, I'll get working on a google map  |
Nice! Can't wait to see that coverage map.
I'll be available to assist with coms. FJ-Ollie also has an impressive HAM radio (s) in his rig. It would be ideal to have one ham on each run going out but I don't think we have that many hams. Let me know if I can assist in the Communications side of this event.
