[aprssig] Re: [TinyTrak] TinyTrakII Unporto string?

[Joe Della Barba]

As I just discovered, all the digis are in the process of being changed over 
to IGNORE Relay and Wide. On my local digi the only thing that works now is 
WIDEn-n. I would suggest a path of WIDE3-3. As far as your friends seeing 
you, can we assume you mean via FINDU and not direct RF?
