Hi Curt, Thanks for the suggestion. I wasn't aware that it existed. After thwarting a few broken links I did manage to find a copy. It targets perl 4, it's not a module, and it outputs formatted text instead of a data structure, so it doesn't exactly acheive the same goals that I have. However it

Announcing Perl module for parsing APRS packets

2005-08-05 Thread Jeff Laughlin
Hello, I've written a Perl module, Ham::APRS::Parser, for parsing APRS packets, and I've released it under the GPL. You can find it here: http://aprs.n1ywb.com/Ham-APRS-Parser-0.01/ It takes the packet string, parses it, and returns a hash with the data in a consistent and easy to process format.
