	Greetings again; I have Xastir, but it's a front end and I'm
looking to learn something about APRS to try and keep busy in my old age
since most other "hobbies" are now gone.. Front ends are OK for
operating but don't teach what's under the hood, so to speak..

	I can't be a digipeater or active because this complex does not
allow Ham Radio so the antenna is hidden in the eves, etc... "Testing"
is about all I can hope for..

	I've read all the docs I could find but must not understand much
of it.. Little by little I may learn, eh?? Thanks for your suggestions..
