Garett, Why is running a mobile Digi frowned upon? We were thinking about doing this for some of our storm chasing activities come here this spring. Park a vehicle in one place and let the others digi through it back to the nearest stationary digi. That way we can cover more ground.
If you can let me know why this is frowned upon that would be great.

The one thing I noticed is that you have all the Digi settings turned on as well, are you sure that the extra transmissions were yours and not your Tracker Digipeting others? Running a mobile digi is also usually frowned upon...

Let me see if I can figure out how to save and upload. I will be glad to do that. Funny thing right now is, the thing is working about like it should on the 600 seconds. Why, I don't know. When I went to bed it was every couple of minutes. I just now checked the raw and it is about every 10 minutes. > > I will try to save and upload tonight if I can learn how to get it done. > > Thanks for all of yall's help.
