Hello and Welcome!
I'm Gary Wilson, K2GW. ? I served on the Amateur Radio Staff at the Summit in 2017 and will again at the WSJ in 2019. ?
One thing we'd like all hams visiting the Summit (whether on the Amateur Radio staff or not) to bring is an HT, ideally 2m/440.? We blessed (thanks to Icom and AT&T!) with three permanent Amateur Radio repeaters on the property.? We use these for Amateur Radio demos when HF propagation fails, for nightly nets between the subcamps, for any emergencies, and for fun.
While we'll try to provide programming help at NA1WJ, it would be helpful if you program your HT with the Summit repeater frequencies before leaving home.? The Summit repeater frequencies are listed below and more info can be found at ??

There is also a nearby DMR repeater on?443.875 + cc1 located on Lick Knob off of exit 60 on I-77. It covers from Charleston to The Summit. It's connected to MARC.
