[aprssig] APRS Clients Blackberry

[Lynn W. Deffenbaugh (Mr)]

I was under the impression that the history feeds were not filterable.  
Am I incorrect in that understanding?  I'm thinking that a 30 minute 
history burst of the full APRS-IS traffic would be worse than a steady 
stream of filtered updates for the immediate vicinity.  Besides, it'd be 
awful hard to play APRS tag if my phone was only getting updates once 
every 30 minutes!
