[OZAPRS] HF Mobile XMAS

[Gerard Hill]

The most recent list of HF IGates available is here on the Wayback Machine:
https://web.archive.org/web/20161029215543/http://www.
aprs.net.au/hf/hf-gateways/

It's 15 months out of date now but better than what is available on the
official site:
http://www.aprs.net.au/hf/hf-gateways/

Unfortunately the official site can't be updated because it no longer
accepts logins. The site contains old (and misleading) content ever since
the site was lost and restored from a backup.
Sorry guys - I can no longer keep it up-to-date.

Anyway, there are no 20m IGates operating currently. Mine ran from mid-2013
for a couple of years but now I just run 40m and 2m.
On 40m there is an IGate in Sydney and one in Hobart. All are welcome to
try 40m APRS.

Cheers,
Gerard - VK2IO
