Remember - the latitude is positive north of the equator and negative south of it, and the longitude is positive east of the prime meridian and negative east of it. As above, you can right-click on the link and choose "save target as..." and save it on your own hard drive if you wish.The website www.aprs.fi is extremely useful and just keeps on getting better.

or Stephen WA8LMF's mirror sitePlease note that RELAY, WIDE and TRACEn-n are now obsolete in North America. The big problem with them is that they cause a horrendous number of dupes. The "ping pong" effect of the dupes does more harm to the APRS network than paths that were too long.The new "universal" path is WIDE2-2. Fill-in digipeaters that used to respond to RELAY should change their alias to WIDE1-1. Where mobiles need the help of a "fill-in" digipeater, they should a path of WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1 instead of WIDE2-2. Even if they happen to be in an area where the fill-in digis haven't yet changed to WIDE1-1, this path will still be compatible with all of the WIDEn-n digis in the rest of the network.There may be occasions where a station needs a longer path, but many smart digipeaters are "trapping" excessively long paths. Do your part to help fix the APRS network by helping to spread the word, as well as changing your own trackers to WIDE2-2 or WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1.NWAPRS - supporting APRS in the "Pacific Northwest" but lots of good information concerning configuring TNC based digipeaters with the "new paradigm" settings for WIDEn-n "wide" digipeaters and for WIDE1-1 "home fill-in" digipeaters.TinyTrak 3 and PocketTracker www.byonics.comOpenTRAC Open Tactical Reporting and Communications is a message protocol designed for carrying tactical information, including GPS position reports, weather data, and telemetry, over an unreliable, bandwidth-constrained network. Typically, this is the Amateur 2-meter VHF band using 1200 bps AFSK. The protocol is specifically designed, however, for use across multiple networks to support Internet backbones, satellite links, and so on. Time will tell if this is an "APRS replacement" or if it will be a parallel network.OpenTracker is an APRS and OpenTRAC capable GPS and telemetry encoder, physically and electrically compatible with the Byonics TinyTrak3. The device connects to a GPS receiver and radio, and transmits AX.25 packets at 1200 or 300 baud. The firmware is published under the BSD license.Xastir APRS client designed to run on several platforms including Linux & Windows.
