[aprssig] Digipeating with TM-D700A

I use that configuration when I attend monthly club
meetings and take my hand held inside and leave my
mobile on in the parking lot.  I am not sure why it
doesn't work for you.  Is the structure of the
building interfering with transmission?  
I may have my UIDIGI set to Relay, Wide.  
If you don't have any locals responding to Realy then
that may be the problem?

73,
