STATUS page http://ve1gx.no-ip.org:14501 Client connect ve1gx.no-ip.org:1313 (or 10151 buffered) 07/04/2005: Welcome new Yarmouth APRSd server VE1GX-1 06/24/2006: Some of you may have noticed that our UIDIGI nodes have an "S" symbol instead of the "U". This is to reflect the use of the new N-n settings. In the beacon you will also see something like "/R,W,W3,NS". This shows that the node will digipeat the following paths: RELAY WIDE WIDEn-n NSn-n The NSn-n is a province wide path that is included for conformity but not having much practical use. Our other provinces have NBn-n and PEn-n. The paths RELAY or WIDE are still available to aid visitors and allow an easy transition but we hope to have everyone using the standard path by next summer. Please note the new recomended path settings for ALL stations is WIDE3-3. See the link below for the full details. VE1AIC.The New n-N Paradigm
