Yep.  Bob Alert!  Calling the Father of APRS...  Typo in <kpc3+WIDEn.txt> to
repair, Father.  Shud be DDDMM.mm for longitude. <grin>

Some other stuff in there could be better too.  Like, for example:
6.E. SPECIAL NOTE FOR KPC-3 DIGIS WITH THE LAST 8.2 VERSION 7265:
This ROM will not work right with WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1 mobile paths unless
one of the UIDIGI Aliases includes WIDE1-1.  So in those digis, set
UIDIGI ON WIDE1-1,"SS"1-1,WIDE3-3,WIDE3-2.

<grin>
73, Cap
