Greetings,

I was just playing with the DAO digits in my wife's T2-135 (KJ4OVQ-9)
and it seems that the additional precision piece of the beacon isn't
coming out correctly.  From aprs.fi:

KJ4OVQ-9>APOT21,WIDE1-1,WIDE2-2:/152533h2759.80NS08039.53Wv251/000!W!

That !W! is supposed to have 2 more characters in there that are either
the raw additional digits (as implied by the T2-135 manual, "an extra
digit of precision") or a base-91-encoded pair of digits for each of the
lat and lon (per http://www.aprs.org/aprs12/datum.txt).

Is anyone else using this or did I not get enough configuration modified
to have it work properly?

The T2-135 is inside an Alinco DR-135 and is connected via an FMI cable
to a Nuvi 350.  Is it possible that FMI doesn't provide more than
hundredths of minutes of precision?

PS. I've turned DAO back off after this initial test, so you're looking
for 2 raw packets between 15:21:25 and 15:26:15 UTC at
http://aprs.fi/?c=raw&call=KJ4OVQ-9.  She's mobile today so these will
be rolling back in time, so here's the capture of the time range:
