[aprssig] emergency beacon called wide1-1 today

[Charles Mills]

Did some googling around, plane and unit might belong to:

*KD0CVN*

Peter D Howell

1472 Iowa Ave West

ST Paul, MN 55108

*
That beacon was  over a residential area - if he was in trouble and went
down, we'll know soon enough.

Possibly a misconfigured TT3.
