[CRAPRS] N0CXX-5

Wed Nov 21 16:54:23 CST 2012

That is fine with me.  I was just doing what Charlie asked me to. The 
EPROM that is in there will work just fine as a stand-alone digi without 
weather.

It has been quite a while since I have been in the 112 station.  I 
retired in 2000 and have been back a few times.  Is there an internet 
available there now that will work?
