Using your own digipeater
Hi, newbie here. I have a (licensed) station, W3DK-2 and a (similarly licensed) digipeater, W3DK-10. VarAC won't let me use my W3DK-10 digipeater in a call to another station - e.g., K2BBL via W3DK-10, it says I can't use my own station to digipeat. W3DK-2 and W3DK-10 are different stations - W3DK-2 is an IC-705 and W3DK-10 is a TM-D710GA. Why is this disallowed? Thanks, Bob - W3DK

it doesnt even make sense to work through your own digipeater. as it adds no value to the process.
Digipeater is a nother VaraFM that you go through on your way to your detination that echos your packets. no logic in echoing your packets from the same modem.
