<DIV>While simplicity in the aircraft is the best, the D-7 can be made to digi and only specificly what you choose to dig using the digi-ned software. You can set the unproto path to anything you choose and have digi-ned digipeat only that statement. If your chase vehicles happen to find themselves in area without digipeater service, they could also use the benefit of the high altitude digi as well... <BR></DIV>
