Scott,

We need to flesh out the user manual for the OT2 some more... I'm
playing with telemetry, and have had to grab the OT manual to figure
out what the telemetry uses for IO, and then had to load the OTWINCFG
program to figure out that you have to not only set TELEMETRY ON, but
also tell it how often to send, as well as figuring out that the
telemetry gets transmitted once every n transmissions, and not a
specific number of minutes apart.

There are a few things like that, where you need to poke and hunt
around to find the information required, rather than just reading the
user manual for the product.

Also seeing something interesting... I'm issuing commands via the
messaging feature of OpenAPRS, and seeing strange things...

VE6FRC is 425 km from SPLSTD, and SPLSTD never uses more that 2 hops,
yet it looks like VE6FRC must have considered SPLSTD as local on RF.
Must be a couple good hops in there tonight.
