Im looking for an Individual with knowledge / common interest in off-road if possible. If I come up empty handed I'll check a club but I was advised (maybe incorrectly) that many ham clubs have lots of politics involved which I'm not interested in.

I have the echolink app on my phone so I'm sure I'll be able to find you there. I have a dstar capable unit in my truck (5100a) but haven't used it enough to feel confident with many of it's functions.
