I generally refer to 'em all as APRS clients or APRS applications, since
they're generally at the application layer of the good ol' OSI reference
model.
tracker = transmit only client
anti-tracker = receive only client
D7/D700/Tracker2 = client implemented in hardware
.... and of course, your favorite APRS application is a client implemented
in software.
Differentiating between the APRS application and the TNC even when both
live in the same hardware seems to help folks who are trying to understand
the difference between the D7 "TNC" and "TNC packet" modes of operation.

Subject: RE: [aprssig] Renaming Anti-tracker
In the T2 flyer I called it 'waypoint output capability' or some such. I
think that's more descriptive... you can just say if a device/program has
waypoint output or not.

I haven't tried NMEA over serial plus Garmin USB at the same time, but
separately anyway it works fine. I pulled some sample waypoints into
Terrain Navigator Pro, which is what SAR uses locally.

Subject: [aprssig] aprs-scs version 1.29 is ready for downloading
Hi All
A new version of aprs-scs is now ready for your down loading pleasure.
Please go to http://www,tapr.org/~kb2scs
What follows is the Whats New.
Version 1.29
Added a new HF mode.
aprs-scs can now work with Multipsk. aprs-scs is able to connect to
the new multipsk server. aprs-scs will work with all of the multipsk
modes except any mode that does not transmit the following characters.
>
/
-
\
Note not all modes that Multipsk can output and receive send the
above characters.
Since the above characters are in every aprs packet then if the above
characters are not compatitable then aprs-scs will be unable to
decode the packets
Let us hope we never witness the "Silence Of The Hams"

Thought I would give it a try so I downloaded it. How do I get it to
work with AGWPE? How does it connect to MultiPSK?
Thanks,
