>Is APRS thinking of how we can use 802.11 for APRS on a large scale or a
>small scale?
It will not be possible for a circuit to be setup for mobile operations
with any dependable regularity. But, 802.11 types of networks using high
gain antennas for backbone traffic between DIGIs might be interesting. If
you operate outside of part 15, then you can just strap on a high gain
antenna and amplify to 1 watt and do quite well with point to point links.
For mobile activities, there are some IP tunneling features available in
the Intermec and similar APs that let you keep a single IP address
throughout the network, whereever you are. This might make it possible for
mobile operations to actually work if we could all have unique IPs...

I hear the clark belt is getting crowded.... can we put a geostationary
satellite, say 30 degrees north of the clark belt? <grin>
On a more serious note, what is the possibility we could uplink the aprs IS
data stream via a secondary audio carrier on an old C band satellite from
some TV station? We could fit a 56k modem inside 100khz, right? Standard
TV audio channels are >100khz wide aren't they? Or is it 75khz? Just how
much data *could* we fit into a 100khz slice?? I am suggesting feeding the
bird from one point and allowing hams w/o high speed internet a chance to RX
the entire aprs IS stream.

Those files are the Macintosh desktop files that contain icons and view
information. They are present on any CDR created on a Mac, and on many
disks created on other OSes by programs that support Mac OS. They contain
no data related to the TIGER data.

I am setting up a new Igate for my local area and was wondering how to do
the following.
I want to be able to feed local RF to the internet as well as full messaging
capabilities & NWS traffic. I only want the local RF stations to appear on
the screen not the multitude of stations found on the internet feed.
Any ideas?
