This is my first question since joining this extremely low traffic list
three months ago. I cannot see any practical use for APRS but since I'm
stranded in a caravan park because of the virus I've had a little play.
I have a network connection via aunz.aprs2.net and I'm using Xastir.
I've sent short messages to 3 or 4 stations at random and have never
received a reply. This could be because these stations are unattended,
which is very likely, or my messages aren't being received by the
intended stations.
aprs.fi shows that my messages have been sent several times. This could
be the way that messages propagate around the network or some sort of
retry method until the system gives up.
So, should I be able to send messages via aunz.aprs2.net. I don't have a
need to send a message, I'm just curious.
