How did you add the APRS to the KG-UV radio? Is there one easy piece? or is it a Ed Special?
I was thinking of looking for a Drupal module that gets APRS and other information to work as a Bikers Blog so you can see live updates as well as other information. Bike trips and logging was part of discussion at the last Drupal meetup. After you demo ( some months ago ) I can see the value of APRS combined with maps and other data to make for a compelling web experience .
