working, on-the-air TARPNs

Far Flung Packet Hams From High Precipitation Flat Forests:

map
ADRO is up as of Jan 26, 2015 with 3 radios, on 50.99, 144.35 and 446.05.
6m ADRO to SNELL is working well southbound and terrible north-bound. We're replacing the radios in the next couple of weeks and hopefully that will fix it.

Many new things are on the block for March.
