[aprssig] Looking for a Presentation on APRS

[John Gorkos]

Try this.  I haven't looked at it for a few years, but APRS seldom
changes...

It's 48MB, so I've linked to it.
https://cloud.gorkos.net/public.php?service=files&t=f7c54eecb22c5c9798f14cb57347f699

Here's the OpenOffice version, it's 1/10th the size of the powerpoint
version:

If you (or anyone) finds egregious errors in it, please let me know and
I'll fix them.
