***From Gordon Kelly***

IAM NOW RUNNING BOTH APRS AND D-PRS GATEWAY LOCATED IN GLENROTHES FIFE TO GATE
ALL APRS ON (144.800MHZ FM) AND D-PRS (d-star gps) ON (144.6125MHZ DV) TRAFFIC
TO THE INTERNET AND MAPPING SOFTWARE.

HERE IS A LINK TO SEE WHATS ON THE MAP
<http://aprs.fi/?lat=56.2136&lng=-3.1572&mt=m&z=9&timerange=3600> YOU WILL HAVE
TO USE YOUR CALLSIGN THE FIRST TIME YOU LOG INTO THE MAP PROGRAM BUT AFTER THAT
YOU WILL NOT NEED TO IN THE FUTURE VISITS

CAN YOU INFORM YOUR CLUB MEMBERS AND OTHERS OF THIS SERVICE AND IT WOULD BE
NICE IF THE RAYNET MEMBERS USE THE SYSTEM TO SEE HOW WELL IT WOULD COPE WITH
LOADS OF TRAFFIC

ALL THATS NEEDED IS TO TRANSMIT YOUR APRS BEACON ON 144.800 FM OR 144.6125 ON
D-STAR IF YOU HAVE D-STAR

WE HAVE ALSO PUT A SPOT ON FOR YOUR SPECIAL EVENT STATION ON THE MAP ALSO SO
HOPEFULLY WILL BRING MORE PEOPLE ON THE AIR IF YOU COULD DO YOUR BEST TO PASS
THE WORD ON THAT THIS IS UP AND RUNNING THAT WOULD BE GREAT ALSO ARE YOU RUNNING
VHF UHF AT THE EVENT STATION AS MANY PEOPLE LOOSE OUT ON YOUR EVENT STATIONS
WITH THE LACK OF HF SETUPS AS NOT ALL NEW LICENCE HOLDERS HAVE HF SOME JUST HAVE
VHF OR UHF AND I THINK YOU WOULD AGREE WE NEED MORE TO GET THESE NEW FOLK ON THE
AIR

MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE
