power up the TX output level when below given height #5

Hi, I would like to have a setting to have 2 different power levels. One for during the flight and one for flight levels below a given value.

That would make it easier for listener stations to get a good fix at the last position.

Thanks, Ben - PE2BZ

but when below a given height the higher power is used (say 1000 to touchdown) then it should switch to mid or low power AFTER landing (or to longer pause between sendings?!?) ... goal in my view is very long lasting tx time after touch down with not tooo much power (and maybe longer pauses) to have many hours of sending time after landing (just in case you have to search for it the next day) 12 hours is nice ... but with longer pauses (and lower power after land) we maybe get 24 hours or more?!?
