Reasonable, but perhaps add:


   "SSID's _must_ be used on additional stations with the same
    callsign that are transmitting on RF in order to keep their data
    separate."


If one doesn't use separate SSID's you get the "APRS Flower"(tm)
drawn on everybody's maps as you drive a circle around your home
station.  Kind'a pretty.
