<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Isn't that the strong point of HF APRS?<br>
A number of years ago, I traveled cross-country from the Pacific
Northwest to upstate New York.<br>
Wanting my family to keep apprised of my progress both to and
back, I ran 30 Meter HF APRS.<br>
Back in those days, (and somewhat still now) there were numerous
'black holes' across the northern tier of states. <br>
My HF transmissions worked well getting into HF Gateways.<br>
