APRS

You can track me in real time using the APRS (Automatic Packet Reporting System) and Amateur Radio.
Current SSID’s in use are:

W8JKC-1 (Digipeater)
W8JKC-5 (Motorola Droid)
W8JKC-7 (Portable/VX-8R)
W8JKC-9 (Mobile/Vehicle)
W8JKC-10 (Laptop)

Click on one of the SSID’s above to update the map below. Please note that the W8JKC-1 SSID will almost never change unless the digipeater location changes.

Technical Info:
W8JKC-1 is FoxDelta “FoxDigi” kit which I assembled. It is currently set to approximately 25watts and has an elevation of about 1040 feet.

W8JKC-5 is a Motorola Bionic which communicates directly to the APRS-IS over Verizon Wireless 3G/4G and WiFi.

W8JKC-7 is a Yaesu VX-8R with the optional GPS speaker mic attachment.

W8JKC-9 is a Argent Data Systems ADS-GM1 GPS receiver and a Byonics TinyTrack3+.

W8JKC-10 is a Dell Latitude E5500 which uses a Delorme USB GPS module and UI-View32 through APRS-IS.

The default map view below is the most recent location of my car, which uses W8JKC-9.
