REFLECTOR: CloudAhoy

[Geoff Gerhardt]

Brett,

I have my APRS working - you can look for my registration number (N173VS)
on aprs.fi.  I need to increase my report rate, tho, as its pretty spotty
coverage.  I think I'm using the same basic system you are (Byonics), which
has a feature that will increase your report rate when your heading is
changing.  I have to jack into the box with my computer and do some
configuring.

The CloudAhoy give so much additional info, tho.  It even gives airspeed
(presumably by combining ground speed with local weather info).
