[aprssig] battery portable HF APRS?

[Ron VE8RT]

Hi Erik,

   ideally, if possible, position beaconing while mobile from a bicycle
(recumbent), any messaging capability would be an extra when stopped
and set up with a larger antenna.  Other applications might include
testing it with a remote WX station (NVIS on 60M if we had an APRS
frequency there may work better).
