Hi John,

As I understand it that is the way HamIM works and why the ARRL Contest 
Desk approved it.   Rovers send their GPS info out on 147.585 MHz 
simplex, and there is no digipeating or feed to the internet.  I have 
been thinking about doing some roving, and will definitely consider 
using HamIM.  http://www4.qth.com/~isisocom/propnet/HamIM/HamIM.html
