[OZAPRS] APRS HELP

[Andrew Rich]

Hey thats really cool !

Re other freqs, Yes I must admit I tried aprs over a 100 mW UHF CB, but on
channel 22 , thats data is it not ?

The UHF CB regs says "No packet radio"

As for A/C AM, I am not sure about the legals there mate.

The pilot normally holds a licence to operate the radio. The fact is has
"organised" audio ....not sure.

ADS-B is the legal aircraft way of doing position reporting but its $$$$

I have tried these 433 MHz modules, too low power.

I have come to the conclusion we have got it made in AR being able to
burst
data on VHF

I recently toured the Murray in my aircraft taking with me a portable APRS
TX system. (TinyTrak3)
My local aeroclub members thought it was great to gather around the PC in
the clubhouse and watch our progress
via Findu.

The aeroclub carry out fire spotting duties on behalf of the CFA and DSE
during summer and have asked me if it is possible to run APRS from their
aircraft back to the clubhouse so they can track the progress and
whereabouts of the operation.

Of course it is using AR but is there a way it can be done using other
frequencies and remaining legal.  ie UHF CB or aircraft radio(AM)

Also maybe there is something commercially available that wont break the
budget.


LOOKING for ideas.



With Thanks
