We have discussed <br>the issues that have come up with high altitude balloons. He <br>understands to NOT have WIDE1-1 in the path for this application.<br><br>His research is pointing him to WIDE2-1. Given the number of Digi's in <br>the area, I wonder how no path would work.<br><br>One of his concerns is that some of the small airports he uses away from <br>home are in areas without Digi coverage at ground level and thinks that <br>no path would not allow him to get a packet out when landed and parked.<br><br>I have suggested programming each
configuration available to him with a <br>WIDE2-1 and no path.<br><br>Comments, suggestions?<br><br>Thanks in advance<br><br>73<br><br>-- <br>Randy Allen, KAĜAZS<br><br>---<br>This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
