[K3CAL] Experimenting with 9600-baud APRS

[Thomas Rozenbroek]

OK, once again (or maybe still) I am officially confused.

It is my understanding that FLDIGI is used for HF SSB, not 2M packet.  
What am I missing, beyond the normal things like common sense, a 
personality, a sense of humor and intelligence?

Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.

Also, what would be a good frequency on 2m to stand up a digipeater for 
test purposes?

73s,
