As a reminder ...
As the versions change, some changes take place in the way it is displayed.
Use this as a guide, if it is not flowing smoothly, or has a few more or a few less
options.
This is not a traditional APRS program, but using the APRS option will allow your
Telpac Gateway to be shown on APRS maps. This is currently not working
as the RMS and CMS conversions are taking place. Give it a little time.
Contact the PMBO / RMS station you are going to use
and confirm that it is OK for you to use them for Telnet purposes. You may
change the PMBO / RMS to another one you have contacted and feel comfortable using.
