<p>Would it be better to use another band? Either way this is
exciting :) The JS8 grid thing works, but you miss a lot of the
APRS functions.<br>

<p>I am going to see if I can get YAAC going tonight or tomorrow.</p>

Drat. I wished I'd seen this email 5 hours earlier. I would have
delayed the build of YAAC I just put out so I could include a
manual-only beacon mode. Oh, well, next build...

Maybe this would work on other HF bands, BUT NOT ON 60M !!!<br>
<br>
We CANNOT legally have any kind of automated
"untouched-by-human-hands" <br>
spontaneous transmission on 60 meters.<br>
<br>
The 60-meters "channels" (we are assigned only 5 single spot
frequencies; not a <br>
band with lower and upper frequency limits) are shared with
federal users like <br>
DOD and FEMA, with hams as secondary users.<br>
We are obligated to monitor before transmitting and
immediately yield to <br>
federal users, should they activate a channel. Ham BBSes and
mail-box-type <br>
automated systems are already explicitly prohibited on 60m.<br>
<br>
Any APRS activity on 60M MUST be by single beacon-on-demand.<br>
