[OZAPRS] APRS nextgen

[Andrew Errington]

That sounds great, but don't lose sight of the fact that APRS is not all
about tracking.  Your remote units should have two-way capability, if only
to back-off transmission when there is something else already
transmitting.

It sounds like you are re-inventing Bob Ball's PIC TNC.  It's a TNC, a
digipeater, and a tracker (all one unit, depending on how it's
configured).

On the display side, since you are using Linux is there any reason why you
are not using Xastir?
