[wxqc] Fw: APRS WX issues

[steve]

Brandon,
   
  I see your dilemma, but you don't say how high this mountain top is....but WIDE3-3 if this is at ANY significant height is going to be seen over a VERY WIDE area and probably several hundred miles away, WIDE2 or WIDE2-1 should be more than enough over your local terrain to get into your local IGATE,
   
  Best,
  Steve, AS132/kf6wax-3/KF6WAX-1 Igate sysop

          The station KI4MKI AS542 does not have any internet or telephone access. This station is mountain top. The only option for now is APRS RF to IGATE.

  your internet connection is all the guarantee that you need for the data to get to the correct source, an IGATE is not needed in this picture at all,

  Offhand, it looks like KS4NG and K1LNX-1 are getting the majority of the 
reports. That's not a statistical review but a quick-look with the Mk 
II Eyeball. I suspect that WIDE3-3 is overkill for the most part.
