[aprssig] Digipeater or cross band repeater?

[Ken Kinyon]

If I leave my truck at a trail head and go hiking.  What would be the best
method to keep my position known?
As I see it I could set the mobile in the truck to digipeat my signal or I
could set it up as a cross band repeater and beacon to it on 440.  The
radios involved are a TM-D700 and a TH-D7G. Are there any pro's or con's to
either setup?
Thanks and Happy Holidays,
