[pct-l] PCT Hiker Rescue

[Aaron Wallace]

I couldn't find specific info online, but based on the aricle below I suspect it was a low-power HF rig and not a VHF/UHF HT.

Dick,

Do you know which model radio the hiker was using and which frequency and mode?

I just read in the paper where a PCT-thr-hiker carrying HAM radio
broke his leg and called for assistance using a HAM in Montana to
coordinate his rescue.  He was injured at Buck Creek Pass, WA
