Yes.  Generally this has been a problem of VHF APRS all along.  Folks have
packet hardware they're not using and a place to leave it powered up (with
thoughts that doing so will be helping others).

Better questions are:
_How many_ APRS users are unable to accomplish their local VHF APRS
objectives.  Where?  Why?  If their problems are _proven_ to be a VHF
coverage issue, then how often are those problems truly occurring?  

Best bet for actual usefulness (and VHF network courtesy) in most all cases
these days is (at most) _only_ a traceable fill-in digi, ideally in service
only for the duration of demonstrated need.
