[aprssig] CNSP-18

[Lynn W. Deffenbaugh (Mr)]

Because there's not nearly as many stations receiving on HF APRS.  And 
AFAIK, the transmitters aren't as cheap or generally available.  And the 
antenna would be much bigger (and heavier) as well.

If anyone knows of a cheap SSB HF 30m transmitter, or better yet 
transceiver, I'm interested!
