Hope so, though, to tell the truth, I'd not be lost if I had to turn it 
off (as it is, it's just connected to a simplex node that links via RF 
into the Penn Wireless system rather than my "allstar-connected" network 
of 2/220/440/900 machines). The fewer drive-bys, the better.  Besides, 
with all the systems connected to the NJ/PA network (not the size of the 
WAN system...), it cuts down on the noise/kerchunking/blind "CQ" 
calling...)

I'm thinking it's in there for the CYA aspect more than Jonathan using 
it as a club over repeater owners' heads.  Not discounting that they 
might...just that they've had no reason to.

But, one would think that with the experience of folks using or with 
exerience in the 2 technologies, they'd come to some meeting of the 
minds in the spirit of cooperation, fellowship, improvements, and 
sharing ideas.  Unlike other linking system developers who will remain 
north of the border...oops, did I say that?
