Greetings,

I'd like to get in to this hobby, are there courses in the area that I can take?

What are some portable radios folks use?

Thanks

[Operation] New digipeater/igate in Huntsville

I have placed my FT-2900R and an old i3 laptop into digipeater/igate operation in order to fill in some of the APRS gap in Huntsville. I noticed there was no APRS coverage over here, so I have set out to change that.

From what http://aprs.fi shows, I have about a 10.8km range and have received station from up to 15km away at times. (Not counting the stations from 100km+ away cause those aren't daily and tend to happen only early mornings....)
