Andrew,
Hi, Rob VK2XIC the idea has merit and would be interested in hearing from you further.
I would think a "PalmPilot"device with Linux as the platform to interface to the the system would be nice......

I would like to get names and callsigns in support of a proposal to put forward to the people that make easy radio.
For AUS$65 and AUS$90 you can get 19k2 data at 30 watts.
The only issue is, that at the moment they make these smart tranmistters on LIPD. (not really a proper ham freq)
I am attempting to get enough interest to get the manufacturer to meet us half way.
What do the easy modules do ?
1. 10mW 19k2 preamble bit swap, manchester encoding CRC 180 Byte payload
2. I am sending APRS position reports in 45 ms
3. I am sending APRS position reports once a second
I am heading for
1. Simple but effective data burst style tracking
2. LCD either LAPTOP or GPS Display of position.
Open Source ?
The Easy Radio modules are a Transciver as well. they double as a receive station.
I am not to the stage of smart digis that roll call and learn yet, but am thinking about it.
