[OZAPRS] SEQLD APRS

[Brian Beamish]

Hi Andrew

What is new?

Really nothing at all has been like this for some years now cannot
understand why you being one of the most active on 2m APRS have not
noticed
this before this is exactly why I and others in SEQ either dropped out
APRS
totally or like myself migrated to HF. I have given up on VHF locally for
a
few years now. What you have stated below is nothing new at all and you
should add another

8. Poor setting of parameters in digpeaters and personal beacons etc just
listen the digi's repeating one another and often going round and round
repeating the same beacon.

We tried years ago to fix this problem as we could see what was going to
happen but few would cooperate here in SEQ most of those who tried then
have
now given it away.

Until you get that cooperation you have Buckleys chance of establishing a
good VHF APRS network in SEQ, we gave up Good Luck.

Andrews previous traffic read:-

SEQLD APRS has fallen in a heap
 
We have
 
1. Stations with 3 second transmit delays
2. No co-ordination of digi placement
3. A station re-transmitting all the VK4 traffic back into the on air
Network.
4. Mobile stations are struggling to get out, on what was once a quiet net
5. Short time spans between digi idents.
6. Weather stations transmitting errors
7. A station can be heard keying up and "reading out" callsigns - must be
Using VOX and talking UI-view
