Jim,
For an inexpensive setup I would suggest a sound card interface
and radio.
If you go to www.argentdata.com (This is the guy who makes the
opentrac) you
can find a brand new 2 meter HT for $90. He also has all of the
interface
cables as well. His OT2 is also a KISS capable TNC if you don't
want to do
the sound card thing. He has discovered that the Garmin Nuvi series
vehicle
navigation GPS's will work with his trackers in the Garmin
protocol. It uses
the Garmin Fleet tracking interface. It has full map display of
APRS on air
traffic and limited messaging through the GPS.
Congrats Jim,
I can second the vote for the OT2. Its relatively easy to put
together and is a most flexible and capable device. We have both the
OT2 and T2-135 in service at various locations here.
