Yep, here at home I do live just about half way between two different digi -
but only one will hear me.

Check my track today - I left home this morning and rode over to Ocean
Springs, MS, then back Hwy 90 to I-10 at Mobile, then East on I-10 to
Pensacola, FLA.  Here is the track:

While going West toward Ocean Springs the track looks pretty good - just
about where I quit getting digi'd the track stops.  But riding toward
Pensacola, I was digi'd several times during the ride (Indicated by "my pos"
showing up on the display of my D700A), but there is no points on the IS.
And note ONLY KI4ELU-7 is digi'ing me.

These things concern me that there is something wrong with my radio. - When
KI4ELU digi's me, and if my TNC tones are *off* a bit, does this get passed
on thru?  OR does KI4ELU-7 decode my signal, then transmit new tones?

Thanks for the help and info,
