Yes, I received a private email from the individual that is preparing the IED's. With reference to ALE soundings, he cites ..

So, what about Propnet ? Would this not also apply to their beacons? Once per hour these station send out their coordinates and station ID. What about Packet on 30M, APRS. I am fairly certain these station do not have a control op all the time as they becaon their coordinates based on their UI-View settings.
