[aprssig] WIDEn-N vs. RELAY,WIDE

[Cap Pennell]

Yes, but what Clay and everybody else mobile (in North America at least)
wants to leave in there for the road is
WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1
Mobiles don't need to change their paths, and they don't want RELAY nor WIDE
nor WIDE2-2 nor "W1,W2".
Three-hop paths like WIDE3-3 and "W1,W2" (WIDE1-1,WIDE2-2) are unhelpful,
detrimental to our shared VHF network.
