FW: Re: [CRAPRS] W0CXX-5 not relaying my packets

The fact that another digi heard you reenforces that there is nothing
wrong with your path.  Perhaps it's something simple, like maybe
your modulation may be just a bit strong.  The IC station handled it,
while CXX might be just a little pickier.  This is just a guess.  Try
backing down the modulation a tad, and let's see what happens.

Tom,

Your path should be just fine.  W0CXX-5 will accept any path WIDE1-1 through 
WIDE3-3.  I just took a 
look and see only two packets from WE0F-5 in the findu history.  I checked 
NQ0V-9 in north Marion 
and it has been heard by W0CXX-5 12 times in the last 3 hours.  I don't think 
that you need to put 
W0CXX-5 in the path.  I would think that if there was a problem at -5 your 
WIDE1-1 should have been 
heard by K0QVF-2 in SW Cedar Rapids but it was not heard there either.
