Looks to me like you're using a 1 hop SSn-n path so you're trying your best to keep it local.  It's just that KA4BNI-3 west of me has great ears, especially when conditions are just so.


Roger,

Thanks. Actually, the packets are being brought to RF with TN2-2.
However, some of our local digis seem to be configured to digipeat WIDE
with digicall insertion, but just relay TN without digicall insertion.
"KA4BNI-3*,TN2" would indicate that it was already relayed (probably by
W1ARN-1) and then digipeated by K4BNI-3. I'm only in ear-shot of W1ARN-1
and NT4UX-3 with my station and antenna (with occasional pickup by
N4HAP-1). My intended coverage range is from the Tennessee river in the
west to just past of Cookville in the east, so TN2-2 seemed the best
approach to me. (Basically, middle TN. Still hoping to get folks
interested in covering the east and west.)

It's coming. Sorry, been a busy couple days. Stay tuned.

Cheers,
