[App_rpt-users] dmk uri question

[Shane Morris]

Can't you store an ID string in the EEPROM for identifying multiple URIs on
a system, so the computer knows which interface to activate when, which is
useful for crossband repeaters and the like.

That was my impression of why it was there - I could be way off the mark
though, and bow to superior knowledge in these matters.
