We do not have more than a couple of people in our area who use the 
D700/D710 radios. We do have TNC-X/X-DIGI hardware that is typically 
only used when supporting special events. It seems like with the 
proper configurations discussed here in this thread we could achieve 
the same advantages for both our event and the normal APRS 
infrastructure that may be in the area.
