The Oklahoma City Autopatch Association along with the Salvation Army has put together 10 Communication kits that allow field teams to communicate on 2 Meters and the units will also beacon the teams location via APRS.

Just days after these units were completed they were shipped to Florida to assist Salvation Army Canteens in the aftermath of Hurricane Charlie.  The kits have remained in Florida in anticipation Hurricane Francis's arrival in Florida.  Below are links to the APRS Find-U page for the trackers. Take a look to see where OCAPA's footprint is today.
