I believe the discussions so far would prohibit relayed APRS .. the
fixed station would have to directly receive the rover's APRS packets

I don't have a problem with it, but without widespread adoption it's
not something that's going to the top of my todo list for the Jitney.
SDR, reflocking, networking, etc are way above that :)
