[aprssig] APRS spouse

[Jason Rausch]

My understanding on this was it was ok as long as the
person drving the vehical did not have direct access
to the equipment.  I guess meaning that the equipment
would be left to operate in the manner that the
licesed ham set them up to operate.

Sort of the same thing with tactical callsigns on
vehicals like in a bike race, as long as the licensed
ham's callsign is in the comment field, that makes it
legal.

Anyways, thats how it was emplained to me.

Just my $0.02,
