Sorry in advance if I'm stepping on anybodies toes. The next time you see me
typing you might just want to curl your toes up a little bit. :-D

Does anybody know anything about N5DFQ? On QRZ it's listed as the DUST BOWL
AMATEUR RADIO CLUB. I've tried the email address that's listed on QRZ but it
either bounces or I get no reply. I could send an APRS message to the Digi but
since it's not a maned station I don't get any replies.

I'm getting packets from that OK station up here in Central Nebraska that look
like the ones below. Another question would be why is BVR allowing WIDE7-7's and
WIDE,WIDE's to pass? I thought the "N" overlay on the BVR Digi was supposed to
mean it was WIDEn-N compatable.

When I did a raw data look up on Findu.com I get what follows below.
