====== Summary ====== I'll sort this out eventually. I'm in the research phase at this point. The goals are two-phased: APRS on 2m as a community service: * 2m igate base station possibly with digipeater capability * tall high-gain 2m omni for good listening (Diamond products looks good for this) * listening more important than transmitting - might just use a cheap handheld or older used 2m transceiver (or maybe even just a scanner?) * Very minimal computer - possibly a RasberryPi or other small embedded product APRS on HF: * 10m listening post for GPS position updates from sailboat * Tie this into the same host serving APRS on 2m? ====== Transceivers with APRS Capability Built-In ====== * Kenwood TH-D72 * Kenwood TM-D710 * Yaesu FTM-350 ====== Links ====== * http://wa8lmf.net/aprs/HF_APRS_Notes.htm * http://wa8lmf.net/APRS_PSK63/ * http://www.crosscountrywireless.net/aprs_messenger.htm - A messaging program for Windows * http://aprsisce.wikidot.com/ - APRS Client for Windows * http://www.argentdata.com/ - APRS TNCs
