[OZAPRS] VK3 APRS News.....

[Tony Hunt]

Now this is interesting.. No backwards compatibility with RELAY or WIDE 
anymore.. Not even on a short term basis.. So now Mildura is out on its 
own or has all of the rest of the country changed over and I missed it 
?? Maybee the rest of VK3 has just about changed over.. I thought there 
was some backwards functionality with RELAY and WIDE still in VK3 .. 
Perhaps not..

Just seems odd and at this time of the year when people are allready 
travelling on the road.. Have you just shot yourself in the foot ?? No 
prior discussion on this one..
