If I attempt to send an APRS test message on my Yaesu VX-8DR, and it fails to get an ACK in its 5 attempts, it becomes a 'TX' message and is just left there it seems. If I should want to try again when in better digi coverage do I really have to go through creating the message again? Can I not just somehow resend it?

How to 'resend' a failed APRS Msg on VX-8DR

You can just resend it. I don't have my radio handy to remember how to do it, but I'll try it when I get home and report back. I seem to remember, you just go to sent messages, scroll to the one you want, and hit a key to edit it (Band button, I think) and then hit send. I'll let you know...
OK, I was close. You go to the message that didn't make it using the up/down arrows or by using the dial on top. Then you hit the HM/RV key which will allow you to edit the original. If you just want to do a resend, hit the Internet key. You can do this to resend any message.
