<div class="moz-cite-prefix">So, how about 2mph @ 10 minutes, 3mph @
2 minutes. That way when I'm standing still or basically not
moving, it drops to 10 minutes. When I get underway (>3mph),
it will ramp to every 2 minutes and stay there until I stop again.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>
</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I like SmartBeaconing because it slows
way down when you stop moving. A fixed 2 minute interval means
that it's beaconing every 2 minutes even when sitting on the
parking lot. Your point is good, Bob, that you know when you
should be hearing from someone, but the automatic slow-down is
nice to have as well.</div>

<div class="moz-signature">PS. Yet another enhancement to
SmartBeaconing: A new "stopped" speed below which it drops to a
"stopped" interval. Between slow and fast scales between the
existing two rates and faster than fast gets the fast rate.
Should work well, provided that your GPS isn't drifting too badly.<br>
