If you know their callsign:ConstableCare wrote:Anywhere on the web where you can "track" amateurs movements that have this in their car??
I have done a search on APRS but no "real time" maps for the Perth Area spring up??
Any idea's where you can view it live??

Or something like:

Amateurs usually use a program called UIView for live mapping and I have a set of Perth maps for it.

I planned to, but the GPS301's output isn't exactly RS-232 compatible so it doesn't work and I'd have to use another GPS receiver.ConstableCare wrote: I thought that you still had it with the Uniden GPS 301 on your dash... Is that where you take the data from to feed the APRS?
