Use a Nuvi 350, OT2m, and a Kenwood TM-V71.  It works and gives me waypoints of 
nearby stations, plus puts out beacons of my location, but also noted it is not 
super reliable.  All in my toyota avalon while driving to work, and home.  Set 
my beacon interval to 15 seconds, and my power medium.  Seems to work to get 
some location beacons out.  Tried smart beaconing, but that resulted in less 
packets transmitted, and a poor breadcrumb trail plotting on aprs.fi .  

One trick I found was to make sure your gps (nuvi 350) has a lock on the 
location.  My beacons do not seem to start until a few minutes after the gps is 
locked.  

Have to experiment more.  Also need to experiment with digipeating while 
mobile, as did not realize I could have more problems.  Need to turn 
digipeating off while mobile.
