Change that to "WIDE4-4,WAS7-7" and the packet might live a little
longer on the network, "WIDE3-3,WAS7-7" perhaps in our neck of the
woods. I like this idea though.
I suppose we can't change it to "spam,spam,spam,spam" can we? No,
you're not allowed to hum the tune. Not on the air anyway.

I am talking specifically about well know routes and address based routing
so that when I connect an APRS station to the 'network' it is assigned a
routable address that is known by the digi that it would talk to first. It
would then register with other nearby digi's using its assigned ID. Now,
when I want to send a message to a particular station, I send it and the
digi's all know how to get it to that station because routing is explicit.
People could then subscribe to the posit, weather, telemetery from a
particular station, and it would be deliveryed efficiently to them based on
known routing capabilities... AX.25 has none of this explicitly, although a
new UI protocol that uses AX.25 for transport might be possible.

Gents,
I have seen some emails about concerns about using THD7A or D700A and the
newer NMEA0183 standard version 3.0.
I would like to purchase a GARMIN Geko 201, which has version 3.0.
1. Does the kenwood rigs work with 3.0 ?
2. What is the difference between NMEA0183 Vxx and V3.0 ?
Cheers
Andrew VK4TEC

Does that rule out any non NMEA version 2.xx GPS are no good for Kenwood
APRS radios ?
That reallys stinks.
What about tinytrak ?
I was looking at etrex and gecko but they are v3.0

I'm BACK! Took a little hiatus lately due to life and schoolwork...
I'm trying to doing some messages but just noticed that 2.7.2 doesn't do
wrap-around in the message window any longer! Have to type several
messages individually now... Is this a known bug???

NMEA.ORG will tell you for a mere $250.00 to $325.00 US.... :)

Yes indeed, Jim! It was present in last year's version too, 2.6.1.

I believe the issue is that the earlier than version 2 of the THD7-A have a
problem with the extended precision of the lat/lon information. They use
character offset to find the fields, instead of counting commas. The
result is they don't get the posit right. I understand that many of the
GPSs let you change them back to an earlier version of output and this lets
them work with the older equipment.

A friend suggested
TOOWIDE
or
2WIDE
as a possible replacement (ie, "WIDE2-2,TOOWIDE" or "WIDE2-2,2WIDE")
