Maybe there aren't enough hams in the area. Any clubs around there to "drum
up some more interest"?

I could see "too many digis" potentially being a problem (but apparently not
in NM) but I don't think there would EVER be a problem with too many
properly set up IGates. The APRS-IS apparently doesn't have any problem with
duplicate reports sent from more than one IGate. Note the word "properly"...
just like digis, trackers, weather stations, and automatic doors, they need
to be set up properly.
Anyway, I'm glad to hear that APRS is still fun to you, but if propnet
sounds interesting to you, why not do both? It doesn't have to be "all or
nothing".
