Hi Rodge and all,

A bit off topic but what the heck. Having no need for APRS I was only 
aware of the existance of UI-View and not it's functionality. Thanks for 
the info, quite an education there. I can see the communications limit 
and the reason behind the inability of communicating with ocean going 
vessels, to do that the communications officer would need an Amateur 
license and the appropriate equipment. I spoke with perhaps the last one 
about 8 years ago and he has since retired from service. Ships have their 
own "APRS" and can be tracked here;
