[aprssig] KPC-9612 latest firmware?

[Robert Bruninga]

RIchard,
Kantronics digieaters should *not* be using the
Beacon text for the position reports.  That is very 
innefficient.  It is one of the biggest QRM problems
we have.  BTexts should only be for *local* info and
should only go direct to its users.. UNPROTO should
have nothing but the TOCALL address)..

KPC-3's and 9612s should be using the smart algorithm
using all 4 BLT's, LTP's and LTexts.  That reduces QRM
by a ***huge*** factor.  Please see how to set up a
Kantronics TNC on the New n-N Paradigm web page:

Thanks

Findu.com shows this:
W0PC-15>BEACON,WIDE,qAO,N0PTN-1:!3848.59NN09043.85W#PHG7360/ Western St Charles County

Wouldnt the beacon,wide be something like apnxxx,wide2,qa0,n0ptn-1 if using the new n-n?  I wanted to make sure I was looking at the right thing.. I need to update this 9612 so I can set it up for future use.

Thanks
Richard
