Smart Beaconing?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>The Tracker2 has a new feature I'd like to see more widely
implemented - you can set it so that if it hears its own packet digipeated,
it'll skip the next n transmissions. This means you can set a fairly
high beacon rate to get a better success rate out in the middle of nowhere,
but when you get into an area with better coverage it automatically cuts back
on beacons.<BR><BR>Scott<BR>N1VG<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
