Hi Stewart,

You can configure your TeleMega to transmit APRS alongside the AltusMetrum
telemetry stream. If you did that you could leave your TeleBT as is and
instead use an APRS TNC to output the APRS data via serial into your
computer. I run all my GPS enabled Altus Metrum products this way as it's a
fully independent telemetry link (excluding the transmitter of course)
which can be useful for troubleshooting from time to time. The only
downside is that if you enable APRS beacons you won't have Altus Telemetry
whilst the APRS packet is being sent as the transmitter can only do one
thing at the time. To my understanding it doesn't interrupt the data
logging on-board though, only the in flight telemetry stream.

I hope you're well mate.

Cheers,

drew
