[OZAPRS] VK2RHR-1 raw

[Josh VK2HFF]

Maybe we south-western sydney folk should adopt a path of just WIDE1-1
for fixed stations etc, to reduce the amount of unnecessary traffic sent
south with hops remaining?
A quick check of my last few months logs shows that only about 100
unique VK2 callsigns have been digipeated by RHR.
I'm #6 on the list by packet count, so will change my path tonight.
