WIDEn-N paths are NOT used on HF!??? I have been several new
users running PinPoint without changing this factory default.??
Digipeaters are heavily discouraged on HF since they double the
time your transmissions occupy the channel, which becomes
significant with the slower data rates on HF.?? Further, the path
information adds needless length to the transmitted packet,
reducing the probability of the packet being successfully decoded.
