Uh, Chris you just then this info to over a thousand people. You might want
to try it again without sending it to the APRS list.

> I also run the mini ITX systems myself. Normally with 4 gigs ram and
either a 1GB flash drive or a 10 gig laptop HD. I prefer running Linux Mint
9, ax25 tools, digi_ned and shortly I will add APRSG to finish it up for
now. I have found Mint 9 to be more stable than any other versions. ( My
preference ) . Ubuntu 10 they dropped and screwed up what they had working
from earlier versions.
>Life of an ITX at a site is less than two years and Its time to swap out
components. sometimes more sometimes less. The great thing is that you can
use the site batteries to power it.

>I would like to find someone that would write the APRStt software to linux
so it could be run from a compact flash or solid state HD. I'm willing to
build out the hardware, Do the testing, tweaking and report bugs. I'm not a
code writer.

>Remember too that other APRS clients will speak messages when the % is used
at the start of a word or the message. Of course, the D700 does not have
voice synthesis, but it can SPELL and PRONOUNCE the numbers and if you look
up the codes, you can get it to SPEAK any word in the radio's vocabulary the
same way.
