[Stephen H. Smith]

Just noticed a station   "ETH-1" appearing on my Los Angeles, CA area 
maps the last hour or so, using the 18-wheeler icon.    Expanding the 
detail revealed no callsign.  the findu raw packet dump at:

    <map.findu.com/ETH-1> 
shows:

Position of ETI-1 --- 1.1 miles northeast of Glendale, CA --- Report 
received 50 minutes 51 seconds ago
Status: TinyTrak3 v1.1 Course: 15.0 Speed: 18.4 MPH Altitude: 626 feet 
   Mic-E message 1, En Route
Raw packet: ETI-1>ST0YTQ,W6SCE-10*,WIDE2-1,qAR,K6TZ-10:`.*\m\+u/"5{}
