When I get out to put my more remote gear onsite, I won't be wanting a
constant connection at all. I'll be after something that only sets a
connection when required and drops it when not required.
I'll be looking at setting up things to drop the connection if
no activity for 30 mins. I imagine that the first received packet will
not go to APRS-IS, only to air.
