Subject: [aprssig] GPS Module
I am thinking about integrating a GPS module into a laptop computer case as
part of a college project and ran across this one:
http://www.megagps.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=109
Is there anything blatently aprs-unfriendly about it, based on the
information anyone sees in the link?
Thank you!
MJ

I would think it should work. Check at Garmin.com to see that it outputs
NMEA sentences on the RS-232 connector.
You might also want to look at the Deluo Serial GPS. That would give you
the GPS module _and_ and antenna for around the same price. Check the
voltage input requirements carefully though.

Yeah, it should work, but it'll need an antenna. If you're trying to build
it into the laptop itself, you might check out Sarantel's geohelix
antennas. They have nice radome options to simplify mounting.

Subject: [aprssig] GPS/PC/D7A
I will be out of town next month, and will be running my D7A as my primary
unit, along with GPS. I also have my notebook computer running Street Atlas
2007.
When I'm home, I have no problem running both, thanks to the dual serial
outputs on the GPS receiver. However, when I rent a car, my portable unit
limits me to one.
So my question is...Has anybody had success in making the GPS data pass
through the D7 while it's in APRS mode? I don't have APRS+SA or other
similar software for the notebook (yet), so for now, I have to hope there's
a trick that makes it possible to leave the HT in APRS mode for beaconing,
and pass GPS data to Street Atlas for navigation.
Thanks.

I haven't, but then I haven't tried very hard. I took the brute force route
and used separate GPS receivers, with a USB adapter for the one on the
laptop. There are definitely advantages to having big bins of GPS receivers
on hand. =]

The GPS15H works great, I bought some a couple of years ago for APRS and
I've had no trouble at all. They even fit nicely into a KPC-3+.

Hello list,
Someone recently mentioned that there were a number of open source APRS
client-side programs or Internet systems. Would anyone be willing to list
them? I'd like to research them on my own. Thanks! MJ
PS: I really need to thank the list membership for its help to date.
You've been a wealth of knowledge as I've worked on my college project.
You've lived up to my mentors hype.

Another good place to go is the APRS Wiki site:
Then click on "Software".

Done. Line 135 under the "Communications" section.

Thank you, Curt. I was hoping to get an overview of what was open source,
specifically. Some things are listed as cost=0, but are not open. I'm
interested in all three aspects: client, Internet hub and Internet servers
(I think APRSworld is open?). Thanks, again! MJ

Open-source:
SmartPalm
HamHUD
Xastir
APRSWorld
aprsd
gpsd
One Wire Weather
Open2300
SLUG
wx200d
APRSdos has sources available, don't recall the license.
Digi_ned and aprsdigi may be open-source.
Probably a few others.
