[OZAPRS] 6m APRS

Guess I should have specified FM. 53.000 and 53.100 "were" set aside for 
packet many moons ago.

I see from the band plan (July 2009) that 53.00 Mhz is listed as 
Simplex: data (BBS) forwarding - guess there's not too much of that now!

53.025 - 53.100 is Simplex: data (general use)

One could probably throw a dart at any of those frequencies and not run 
the risk of offending anybody.

The two radios I can use (Tait T500 and Midland 70-050B) are frequency 
agile so I might give 53.100 a whirl. Anyone with a better choice or an 
objection?
