This obviously can be confusing. For the future, it would be nice if it was put into the form:<br>
<br>
IF aaaa<br>
THEN DO it like this xxxx<br>
<br>
IF bbbb<br>
THEN DO it like this yyyy<br>
<br>
IF cccc<br>
THEN DO it like this zzzz<br><br>-- <br>

On mine <br>radio it's from 145.100-145.495 and this is to low for what we use here.<br><br>Maybe i ask for much ;o) but the possibility to change the default <br>repeater shift should be possible.<br><br>Kai Gunter<br>LA3QMA<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>aprssig mailing list<br>aprssig@lists.tapr.org<br>https://lists.tapr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aprssig</pre></blockquote></td></tr></table><br>
