Hi Bob,
Yes, this is the station I saw as dupes! EA4HP was the one..!
I should have checked findu and saw that.. this guy does every pass even the early morning ones when they were coming..
My chances of hitting it using my D7 is very remote with that sort of traffic... I can use my home station, but your design was for handheld users and mobiles??
Its a very sad that some people have to abuse a service like this...
Thanks, and i am very determind to get at least one packet through even if it kills me!
Thanks, Chris

Hi everyone,
I know very well EA4HP and he is not a bad ham, otherwise he wouldn't be so pro active installing and maintaining a few digis in Spain. He is doing a good job. Because he is my friend and is not joined to this reflector, I sent him this email. Here it is his reply to the group.
73 de Raul, EA4EKH.
------------------ Dear friends,
My good friend EA4EKH, has made me reach for my bad practice complaint last November 14, when I contacted the PCSAT in APRS.
First of all I would like to apologize publicly to all users of satellite and on all those who have with my frame I could prevent reach him.
It was not my intention to saturate the satellite, what happened was that I tried to pass previous contact with the satellite without there, as used in the PATH different options (RELAY, TRACE, WIDE, PCSAT-1, etc.) without success, until I saw the possibility of using the PATH W3ADO-1.
Being able limited, to go by car and with little power in the pass reaching my beacons not get to hear my beacons repeated by the PCSAT, so I insist on my beacon for attempting to contact.
It appears that the satellite hear many of my beacons without that I could receive back as repeated. This is why my beacon is repeated so often.
Again, I want to ask again apologize to all and to return to contact following appropriate recommendations.
Thank you all and sorry so much.
Jose Luis EA4HP. ------------------------
