There's no access to time of day, or day of the week in the OT2 yet. I've requested such, and Scott has responded, but it's not implemented yet. > I also wonder if Bob Bruninga knows about the flexibility of this! > Everything on his pages is/are KPC3-centric. It can be a little hard to catch Bob's attention, and even harder to to get him to listen to outside ideas and concepts. Doesn't really matter a whole lot anyway, we can play with APRS and develop new ideas and concepts without having to get the approval of Bob. Bob was dead set against SmartBeaconing when it was invented, and Proportional Pathing was another thing that didn't pass the bar for him either. It took a few years, but some good ideas can't be ignored forever. We just need to keep playing and creating... sooner or later the rest of the world catches up. James VE6SRV
