I think this is the right approach.

The whole concept of a repeater was once a novel concept that, as I understand it, hams had to struggle with the FCC over. Retransmitting someone else’s signal? From an unattended, remote transmitter?! On a mountain?!

I’m not convinced that transmissions being spread across one of a small, discrete set of frequencies is a significant barrier. It’s certainly more straightforward and easier to monitor than FHSS. I think such a system would be well in keeping with the history and spirit of amateur radio experimentation.
