I saw some packets tonight from VK6HGR in the northern suburbs go via VK...

Re: APRS - spy on me while I drive
Worked north almost to Williams and SE almost out to Gnowangerup.
I'm guessing south it will almost reach to Mt Barker.
Also the digipeater has been heard this evening by VK6KSB-3 at Pinjarra and VK6RVP-1 at Vic Park.
Next we need to improve the antennas!
