[aprssig] Fwd: Kantronics Temperature Specifications

[John Denison]

I used the service at kantronics.com address. I sent the email as soon as 
read this thread, and received the reply today. When they asked how it 
was being used, I gave both of our examples. Mine may be used outside, 
but we don't have -25 F temps here. Although it did snow here on 
Christmas and not north of here. =-O
