The IGates do not send every position through from INet to RF. A position should only be sent to RF if they explicitly add you to a list (and then infrequently), or once every thirty minutes when you are sending a message from INet to a station in their local coverage area.<br /><br />> so I set my beacon rate at 30 minutes, but even at that the GPS pulls the battery down in an hour. So, when I feel the need of it I turn it on and let it update every half-hour.<br /><br />Again, try Ham Tracker. I leave it on 24/7 and its effect on battery life is not noticeable.<br /><br />Steve K4HG<br /><hr /><br />aprssig mailing list<br />aprssig@tapr.org<br /><a
