[aprssig] Too quiet - make packets

[Stan - N0YXV]

Ok I know too little about DX Clusters, Expect and your script.
Questions; "DXCLUSTER-HOSTNAME" is that like your Tier 2 APRS server?
DXCLUSTER-USERCALLSIGN I'm assuming is simply my call sign. If that's so
then why is the next line "YOURCALL" there? Would seem to me that
DXCLUSTER-USERCALLSIGN and YOURCALL would be the same thing. Next setting I
don't understand is port 7300, is this the port on the Tier 2 Server you
want to connect to? I also noticed that you have the following listed twice
in the script, was that an error?
