[OZAPRS] linux

[Ben Lindner]

Most of the applications will be APRS based Ron. It would be great if 
Darryl Smiths OziAPRS would work but I know it wont as is involves 
OziExplorer

Thanks to the group, I will also check my locals hams to see what they 
are running. I know 2 that are into Linux "big time"

cheers all
