[OZAPRS] findu

[Ian Mills]

The weird thing is that it was my WIDE1-1 digi (VK2HIM-1) that heard Karl 34km away
and gated it to the net.
I am setup to digi WIDE1-1 and VK2HIM-1 and as the Illawarra Igate, so I don't know how I managed
to digi a RELAY?
Here is the raw data from aprs.fi as I too find it better than findu http://aprs.fi/info/VK2GKA-7 <http://aprs.fi/info/VK2GKA-7>
