[OZAPRS] UIDIGI and Cheap HH

[vk3xci at aanet.com.au]

G'day Jim,
I'm playing with a quansheng HH at the moment. Its OK for transmit only
tracker, but no good if you want to receive and decode packets.

The rx has a sleep function which can't be disabled! It cuts the first bit
of received packets. One way around it is to have a looooong tx delay on
all tnc/trackers and transmit nulls. It will have to be about 500ms.

BTW, I'd be more than happy to be proved wrong here re disabling the sleep
function
