[OZAPRS] Testing a HF APRS transmitter

[Gerard Hill]

Hi All,

I tuned around and found Peter's signal and sent him a report this 
morning. He was 200 Hz low and is running 15W. Only the guys with DSP 
TNCs or PC software would have been able to pick him up. The ones I know 
of are VK5LY-5, VK2ZZM-5, VK8AB-4, VK6UZ-4 and ZL3RX-4. OK I'm convinced 
- those TNCs do really work.

Cheers ... Gerard, VK2IO
