Rather, it aims to be useful to a\nperson in the field using hand-held equipment. In fact, ultimately,\nI'd like to see code like this built into the firmware of an HT like\nthe TH-D7A.\n\n73,\nBruce\nVE9QRP\n\nOn Mon, Jul 26, 2010 at 12:45 AM, Gary \"Joe\" Mayfield\n<[email protected]> wrote:\n> Cool!
