[OZAPRS] vk1nfi - vk2mpj Fill-in Digi question

[vk1nfi at netspace.net.au]

Ian,

Have a read of vk2.aprs.net.au
in particular http://www.vk2.aprs.net.au/userguide.php

Not trying to have ago at you or anything, and I know we have been talking
about
it now for a few weeks, but we still need to chat with Geoff 2XJG about if
and
how. (Unless you have already spoken with Geoff??)

If not careful enough, it could be counter productive and end up
generating too
much QRM / dupes.

We are also looking at introducing the Pre-Emptive digipeating function,
but
that is later down the track.

Don't change anything yet, once Geoff has a look and we discuss the best
options, we will go from there.

Keep a close eye on the traffic levels, if you see anything that looks
ordinary
wrt paths etc, please turn it off for the time being.

Merry Christmas

Pete VK1NFI / VK2MPJ
