To the group;
I was looking at the paths of many notheast US digis (many of them in
PA) and noticed that most of them are sending their beacon out three or more
hops. Some have fixed paths with the digi callsigns for the first two hops
then throw in a wide, others throw two or three wides in their path. Now
that the network is mature is there a need to even beacon more than one hop
anymore? I know we won't all see them on our RF only displays but we are
trying to keep the network as efficient as possible. These beacons seem to
be unecessary hopping out that far anymore. Dropping the beacons to direct
only or out only one hop would sure free up some airtime. I am seeing some
beacons ping pong back and forth between a digi it just went though. If we
shorten up the beacons it will not affect any users paths and will still
respond just fine.
Just my thoughts, flame suit on................
Thank you,
Brian N2KGC

Let it drop. No need to spam the xxxx out of the list with further

I am planning to move from PM5 to PM6. Should I buy the upgrade or the
full version?
I want to be able to keep both the PM5 and PM6 programs available. I am
leery of upgrades that overwrite existing programs as I have had several
that totally fouled up the system and resulted in having to start from
scratch with a clean install. If the PM6 upgrade is of this type I will
spend the extra to get the full version.
I intend to use PM6 with UIview as I do now with PM5 so this is far more on
topic then the "Continuing Saga Of Janklow".
