I think I have it!<br>
<br>
A mobile station running W1-1,W2-2 gives 3 hops minimum becuase
W1-1,W1-1 would cause every home station in town to TX.... But there
is a real case for running less than 3 hops... If a mobile wants to
limit his path to fewer than 3 hops, he can "dummy up" a reduced Wn-n
count by using W2-1 instead of W2-2.<br>
<br>
I still think RELAY stations switching to W1-1 is a good idea.<br>
<br>
<tt>We could have three recommended paths for mobiles:<br>
W2-2 -</tt><tt>>two hops off digis, if you can hit 1st digi
direct<br>
W1-1,W2-1 ->one hop off house or digi, one more hop off digi<br>
W1-1,W2-2 ->one hop off house or digi, two more hops off digis<br>
<br>
In other words, if you want one hop, we have a solution.... WIDE1-1<br>
If you want two hops, we have a solution W1-1,W2-1<br>
If you want three hops, we have a solution W1-1,W2-2<br>
if you want four hops, we have a solution W1-1,W3-3<br>
<br>
</tt>And.... W2-2 still works everywhere because all digipeaters will
respond to it. <br>

Close, but no cigar. If someone were using a path of
"WIDE2-1,WIDE2-2" and had "house" digi's configured to respond to
that first one, you'd end up with:
WIDE2-1,WIDE2-2
WIDE2-1*,WIDE2-2 (house digi relayed it)
WIDE2-1*,WIDE2-1 (hilltop digi relayed it)
WIDE2-1*,WIDE2-1*
WIDE2-1*,WIDE2-1*
WIDE2-1*,WIDE2-1* (all house digi's that could hear the relay)
WIDE2-1*,WIDE2-1*
WIDE2-1*,WIDE2-1*
