Good point...

Thanks for the report.  I guess this shows the value of having a
two-way APRS system.  Then each packet can get an audio and
visual response when it was digipeated.  The Kenwoods show "MY
POS" when it sees one's own packet coming back from a
digipeater.

More real-time than waiting till after the trip to check FINDU
and see that there was a problem from the get-go...
