Hi John,
Thanks for your input.
Please understand I was not being critical, I really do understand the
problems that distance can create, and gear does go down. My one regret
is that I was unable to experience "normal" vhf aprs coverage in that
part of the state because I think it would have been even more
impressive than it already was.
Regards,
