anyone done this. I'm wanting to get my amature radio license just to do this. i have a gps and want to know how/what else i need to interface these two.
here is some more info http://www.findu.com/
Its called APRS. Heres a good link APRS LINKS
The person you want to talk to is the moderator for this forum. You can use a gps to transmit your coordinates via radio and you can be tracked via the net or other RF linked users.
And here's a shameless plug for my APRS database search page where you can easily find stations using findu.com's database. I need to update the default callsigns because it uses my old call but if you plug in AD5OU-14 you can see where I am.
If you need any help feel free to ask. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
