Ah, Ok but you'd have to come up with some sort of synchronization algorithm
to avoid data collisions?Avoiding multiple receiver is desirous I can see.

Because I would like to have multiple trackers online/in the air
simultaneously, and I would like to do it without needing a ground station
receiver for every operating tracker (about $60 for one xbee ground station,
plus all the complexity) and the extra configuration complexity of using
multiple xbee pairs simultaneously. It's also easier to get APRS back onto the
air for consumption on a D72, D700, etc.
It's also a little bit of an experiment in creating an APRS RF network on a
layer 2 protocol other than AX.25.
