DIGI_NED versions

DIGI_NED uses destination address APNDxx. The prefix APN can be shared with other intelligent digipeaters. The prefix APND is reserved for DIGI_NED in coordination with the APRS protocol workgroup.

The DIGI_NED version number is compressed in 2 alfanumeric bytes. For this count base 36 is used to have enough numbers to identifiy DIGI_NED versions, I.e counting goes:

01,02,...,09,0A,0B,...,0Z,10,11,..,1Z,20,...,etc where 01 is version 0.0.1, 0Z is version 0.3.5 and 10 is version 0.3.6 etc.

where 01 is version 0.0.1, 0Z is version 0.3.5 and 10 is version 0.3.6 etc. It is not as clear as the old numbering, but this leaves space for other applications using the APN prefix.

Table (for versions 001 to 054 with corresponding base 36 numbers):

001 002 003 004 005 006 007 008 009 010 011 012 013 014 015 016 017 018
