[aprssig] APRS Voice Alert

[Dave Baxter]

Bob..
 
"50Hz hum" won't trigger a 100Hz CTCSS system.  Significant PSU ripple (100Hz) may.
 
Sorry, but had to get that in :)

Asier,

Using 100 HZ tone in europe, do you hear many
squelch mistakes due to 50 Hz hum on some systems?

Hi,
I'm Asier, EB2FGI from Spain.
Usually, when I'm in mobile I use Voice Alert  (I think I'm the unique
ham in Europe using Alert Voice because never I contacted  an other ham
with this system, but I continue trying ...) and I use 100.0 tone.
