Cat, I won't debate (I have in the past) Ed's opinion on this, I'll just offer a different viewpoint: Learn D-PLUS linking FIRST, but don't stop there. Like I said, there's no "deadline" for learning. Do it at your own pace. If it takes a year after you learn D-PLUS linking before you get around to doing callsign routing, fine. But don't write it off. It's a useful tool when you're searching for someone and all you have is their callsign... assuming they have also learned how to hit the RS-CS button and reply... -- Nate Duehr, WY0X n...@natetech.com http://facebook.com/denverpilot http://twitter.com/denverpilot ------------------------------------ Please TRIM your replies or set your email program not to include the original message in reply unless needed for clarity.
