[drats_users] What do I Tell my Friends??

[Arnold Harding]

Packet does work, but sometimes to get the signal from point A to point B 
the packet network is not in place, and D-STAR repeaters might be 
available.  D-RATS can also be easily passed from one station to another.

When we did D-RATS for the first time it was because we needed to add 2 
packet digipeters to get the data through to support and event.  (200 mile 
bicycle ride)  D-RATS worked because the D-STAR repeaters were where we 
needed them.
Maybe this isn't the best answer, but it worked well for us.

I am trying to get several other hams who are also in our local RACES group
 to give D-Rats a try. So far they continue working on getting packet up
and  working locally. But, are showing no interest in using D-Rats. What 
else
can I  tell the as to why they should try D-Rats?

Thanks,
