What's the timeframe to get a block of IP's, I'd like to start testing and messing around with AMPRnet. I've got BGP routing available, and I can't wait to get connected.

If you are going to do BGP (min /24), you need to contact Brian Kantor -- see http://wiki.ampr.org/wiki/Announcing_your_allocation_directly

Hello Michael,
First, I would recommend to fully read the AMPR FAQ (http://wiki.ampr.org/wiki/FAQ) to better understand some of the steps. Once you've read that, you'll need to create an account on the Portal system and request a subnet. You generally cannot get a prefix smaller than a /24 announced in BGPv4 so I would recommend to start there but I wouldn't recommend to ask for more unless you can really justify the need. This usually doesn't take long (hours, maybe a day or so) but depends on how busy this volunteer is.
Once you get your subnet from your regional AMPR coordinator, you'll need to then send your various details to Brian Kantor to get a BGP LOA document to send to your ISP. Those details will include your newly allocated prefix, your advertising ISP mailing address, their ASN number, their specific BGP technical contact details that matches their ARIN BGP registry, etc. At that point, Brian will issue a document to you granting BGP readvertisment permissions. From there, it's up to you and your ISP to setup the appropriate routing (eEBGP, iBGP speakers, etc).
Good luck!

Thanks, I've been spending a ton of time on the Wiki
I am my Wireless ISP, so that won't be an issue. I have a few different routes, so I'm hoping for a /23, and put one on each end of my network. We do service a handful repeaters, and I'm hoping to do a some sort of RF based TCP/IP solution, haven't found one I like yet. Any recommendations? I could go Wifi based, 900/2.4,5ghz, but I'm hoping to find something other then packet to use at 440 or 1.2.

Well, that all depends on the path (distance, obstructions, required data rates, and what you need to transport (IP, serial, AX.25, etc)). My local group is running a few of the Ubiquiti NSM3 Wifi units in the 3.4Ghz HAM band to transport IP for SIP VoIP phones and other things and they work well.
