[OZAPRS] Silly UIView question :)

[G T & C A Beagley]

Maybe a silly answer, but is the Digi responding to WIDEn-n?
Perhaps you could try Unproto APRS,RELAY to see if it digipeats and if 
it does then try APRS,WIDE. If you are Tx OK and it is digipeating then 
you should see your packets come back with an alias from the digi.
