[OZAPRS] VHF Propagation and Prediction

[Paul Mullins]

I was wondering if any body up here knows how the VHF marine one works, 
is it the same as the HAM APRS? I know its a silly question but, this is 
the reason why I ask two weeks ago my parents went out boating the craft 
is fitted with some of the latest NAVMAN radio, gps and depth sounding 
equipment all of which is interconnected, the radio can send GPS info, 
if it is using the same it would be easy for my to know if they have 
returned, last time they did not phone and I was preoccupied with other 
  stuff going on was not until 8 pm that I knew the time. If the systems 
are the same I could track them easy!

I might look up on the navman site or the marine radio and read the 
manual but this will be later on.

I love tools that allow the info gathered to be made more readable.

Cheers All

Paul
