Your running 5 watts into a "plus 3"

What is a "plus 3" ?

What is your packet path ?

Can you see a digipeater ?

Do you have an igate in your area ?

The rule is "run as much power as is neccessary"

1 Watt - with reference to what ? you lost me

Hi,

What is the rule of the thumb for power on APRS?  I'm
running 5-watts into a plus 3 and I'm not doing good
at all.  I've never found myself on findu.  So I
assume I'm flogging a dead horse here.

We used to run 1-watt on packet.  Has that changed?
