I'm in the same situation... I'm looking for a navigation system
for my car, and I need a good talking turn-by-turn system plus
RS232 output to drive a TinyTrack.

I've looked at the Garmin Streetpilot 3 and the C330 but have
not made a choice yet.  One decision I have made is
that I don't want a screen any smaller then the Street 3.

I don't want a unit that has anything weird in the cigarette
lighter plug (like the audio amplifier & speaker of the Street 3,
or a +12vDC to +5vDC converter.  I want to cut off the cigarette
lighter plug and use Powerpoles into my under-dash mounted
mini-RigRunner. If I have to I will put the Powerpoles on a female
cigarette lighter socket but that's not an ideal solution.

One of the things I'd love to see (and it may be a feature on
a navigation system that I've not had a chance to play with)
is a personal Points Of Interest file.  I've no real use for 99.9%
of the POIs that I've seen in the commercial GPSs that I've
looked at...

However I'd like to be able to upload my own POI list and
be able to have it display or not with a couple of keystrokes.
If it can have multiple sections (like vendors, friends, doctors,
toy stores (i.e. HRO, AES, etc), that would be a bonus.

For example, one friend of mine is a broadcast engineer, and
when he travels he likes to drive by AM transmitter sites and
visit friends in the business.
He'd have those in a personal POI list with four sections -
transmitter sites, business friends, personal friends and family.

Likewise another friend is an architect and he has a fascination
for old church architecture... whenever he travels he looks up
the address of every major church over 50 years old in the area
he's visiting and plots them on a local map. If his travels take him
anywhere near a point on that map he stops and takes 20-50
digital pictures. If he owned a portable Nav system he'd have the
address of every major church in the seven western states in a
personal POI file.

If the personal POI file can be uploaded from a PC that
would be nice.  If it can be transported on a portable media
(like a CF or SD card) that's even nicer as you could unplug
the card, take it in the house, update it and put it back in the
Nav system.

I've used Garmin and Magellan... but I'm willing to look at
everything, including software-only solutions (i.e. a PC that
lives in the trunk and runs a flavor of Winders, and talks to
a 7" touch screen in the dash).

I'm looking forward to any reply comments.

Well Guys N Gals:

I started something here as an off topic query yesterday [Saturday]
and didn't think the responses [replies] on this list and direct
emails to me, would be that overwhelming and informative. I thank
Kevin W3KKC for his patience and understanding and I wish to thank all
who responded and to say that NOW.we spare him and other list
members any further comments. Lets bring the Acronyms-a little OT
issue to a nice, quiet close on the Repeater-Builder list.

Stay tuned for my exploits with a new project, a remotely controlled
HF station and repeater system via the Internet. Yes, it is happening
amongst several Hams around the globe with good success with the
TRX-Manager and Ham Radio Deluxe programs and a host of online VO/Ip
audio/soundcard, "PC Anywhere", Speak Freely, Skype type configs.

Hope everyone had a SUPER nice weekend. I did, especially after
watching the new flick with the wife, "Transformers" this afternoon.
There are a couple of Hams in this town I would love to transform into

RE: [Repeater-Builder] GPS Navigational units

[Eric Lemmon]

Don,

I have owned a number of GPS receivers over the years, and I feel that the
Garmin GPS76 is about the best non-professional GPS receiver I have used.
It doesn't have the centimeter-level accuracy of my Ashtech survey-grade
receiver, but it comes about as close as you can get without post-processing
of differential data.

The main features that the GPS76 (not the same as the GPS76MAP) has are a
fairly large display, an external antenna jack, a power/data connection, and
WAAS (Wide-Area Augmentation System) capability.  Don't even think about
buying a GPS receiver that doesn't have a jack for an external antenna.  The
power/data connection allows me to record position every two seconds on a
GPS Datalogger, along with the date, time, speed, heading, and elevation.
This is great for charting rural roads, bike rides, and off-road travels.
When used with a high-end mapping program like Ozi Explorer, it is an
extremely capable tool.  My GPS76 is mounted in my SUV using an articulated
mount from RAM- very rugged and handy.

When used with a magnetic (or permanently-mounted) remote antenna on the car
roof, the GPS76 can achieve horizontal positioning errors below 3 meters in
3-D Differential Mode.  That's very good for a unit that costs less than
$500!

Re: [Repeater-Builder] TLD5492 Exciter

[John J. Maurer]

The TLD5492A is shown in my 1979 UHF Micor Base and Repeater manual 
68P81025E50-G, and is indeed as Eric suggested a VHF exciter (150.8-174 mHz) 
followed by the tripler.  It is part of the TLE1720B exciter assembly.  The 
TLD5491 is the low split version (132-150.8).

If I have a chance later, I'll pull the manual apart and scan the Station 
Alignment section for you and post a link.
