Check out the link!

This is the first section of my cross-country journey from Merrifield, VA to
Austin, TX.

I haven't found a way to zoom in to limit the display to just the relevant
section of this map.

On a different page,...

... I don't see any APRS reports since I crossed the  border from TN to NC.
(I'm currently in a hotel near the intersection of I-26 and I-40 in Asheville,
NC).  Perhaps the battery in the Pocket Tracker is failing, or NC digipeaters
don't recognise the WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1 path I am using...

At 55-65 mph, the Pocket Tracker "Smart Beacon" setup has been transmitting
about twice a minute.

I'll be back on the road in about 45 minutes and will change the Pocket
Tracker battery before starting out.
