Shucks, you can do this NOW. Simply run a second instance of UI-View, connected to the internet stream, but with a filter for everything within, say, 20 miles. Very simple.<br>

Except that:<br>
<br>
1) The filter will put stuff on the local map. It won't, by default, transmit this stuff on RF though you could tweak igate.ini . Further, you would have to filter out position-less stuff like NWS warnings, bulletins, etc.<br>
<br>
2) Dozens of igate stations along the itinerant mobile's route would have to do this to achieve what the original poster wanted -- to make his Internet-based mobile appear on local RF in one town after another as he travels through different areas.<div>
<div></div><br></div></blockquote><div><br>Cool idea, though. It opens up other possibilities such as transmitting weather station data via internet only and still have it show up locally on RF. In that case one would only need one igate nearby his fixed location to have the "reverse filter" in place. Why transmit to IS only? Could free up a 2 meter rig for a different use. Also it could be an easy solution for an HOA that doesn't prevent a weather station from being installed in a back yard but prohibits antennas on the roof.<br>
