[OZAPRS] iGates and RF

[Warren VK3BYD]

Hi Rob,

 

The main Igate in VK3 feeds out posits for VK3 and (I think) any station
within a few 100Km range.

Without that traffic I would only see stations that have enough digi hops to
make it to North East VK3.

I am about three digi hops from Melbourne, so most stations don't make it
this far.

VK2 /VK1 does something different and I see very little traffic from there.

 

73

Warren.

If we change our Igates to only feed messages back out on RF, I might as
well give up on APRS.
I would only see the local Digi's and two mobiles on the map,

What are your igates gating to RF that aren't local digi's or the two
mobiles?
