[OZAPRS] Running APRS 2m and a 2m radio mobile (i.e. 2 x2mradios)

[Shaun Pitcher]

OK, thanks Michael. 

Gives me some confidence that it can be done.  Good tip with the high and 
low power also.

Hi Shaun,
This is a problem with running two 2m sets while mobile, possibly more 
with the FM900 unless you have it or can get it programmed for 5W as 
well as 25W. Around town I run my IC-F121S on 5W which doesn't really 
cause much of a problem.
My antennas are as far apart as I can get them, about 3.5 metres.
When I need extra range I can select 25W and 50W on the APRS radio, but 
this then causes de-sense problems when receiving weak 2m signals.
Regards,
Michael.
