[OZAPRS] VK4IE possible error

[Brian Beamish]

Hi

VK4IE-3's Relay,VK4GME-3 etc etc and those sent similarly I guess by other
VHF Operators could be the cause one of the problems that is being
experienced in this area.

VK4IE's RELAY, VK4GME-3, etc etc beacon I am sure would be being
digipeated
by two possibly three digipeaters one of which being VK4GME-3 with other
one
or possibly two also digipeating the RELAY, VK4GME-3 etc etc all clashing
with each other all digipeating the same beacon all trying to digipeat
through VK4GME-3 and if the parameters within the digpeaters are setup
correctly as I feel they would be one after the other as each beacon would
hold up the RX on the other digpeater once quite that digpeater's RX would
drop out and it would send that beacon and so on, two, three or  more
times
the necessary traffic.

I would personally locally suggest that RELAY,WIDE only be used although I
have been off VHF APRS for some years to return when things are sorted out
but I do recall reading some where that the use of RELAY may no longer the
correct way to go?
