[OZAPRS] HF Beacon Rate

[Tony Hunt]

Ray .. Here are some more URLs .. Not sure whats so confusing about the
SSID
usage..
Its probably the one thing that is up to date on web pages.. Ignore alot
of
the other info but the SSID usage is correct ..
http://www.aprs.net.au/aprs_ssid_guide.htm
http://vk5.aprs.net.au/stationSetup.html
http://eng.usna.navy.mil/~bruninga/aprs/SSIDs.txt

Perhaps the confusion is because most of the pages say -15 is for HF and
-9
is for Mobiles .. If -4 is for HF gates and we dont run HF from home as a
standard thing unless its a HF gate then whats "-15 is for HF" supposed to
mean ?? Logically it must be HF mobiles .. Who else is on the HF channel
??
I thought it was for mobiles and HF gates ..

If you actually have a listen on the HF net then you will find that the
majority of  HF mobiles are using -15.. This isnt some thing we dreamed up
here in VK.. It is in fact a international agreement..
