[OZAPRS] Small mobile TNC

[Zik Saleeba]

I want to set up an in-car PC with UIView and OziExplorer so I can
keep track of things while I'm on the road.

Actually this is working towards a wider goal - I'm building a UAV
plane and want to put a tracker on it. So I need to have the gear in
the car to go after the plane when it decides to make a break for
freedom.

Cheers,
Zik VK3MHZ
