The idea that has been suggested of setting the unproto address to UI- View is potentially a good one, because I realised some time ago that there was a problem of telling who was running the program and who was just putting out compatible beacons. The one slight problem is that an unproto address of UIVIEW isn't APRS compatible.
I use the Btext to tell the world that I am using UI-VIEW:-
!5400.55N/00132.37W-UI-VIEW - Ken in Harrogate
All another station has to do is double click on my icon and they can see that I am using UI-VIEW. This allows me to maintain a degree of compatibility in the Unproto path with APRS, hopefully with mutual benefits to both systems.
