I am not Ham literate, but I stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night
and I have ordered the license prep manual............
I have read that APRS is conducted on 144.39 Hz. My assumption is that
there is nothing inherent in Xastir that is tied to that frequency, but
rather the frequency is set by the radio. Is this correct?
My (extremely limited) understanding of the TNC is that it is not
frequency dependent. Is this something that most Ham operators would have?
Are the various tracker gizmos (Open tracker, Tracker2, Mini-Track,
etc.) for a fixed frequency (144.39) or can be function on any frequency?
For proof of concept as inexpensively as possible, I have a laptop
running Xastir and have access to several radios (Motorola HT1250) that
are tuned to Sheriff's, Fire, and EMS frequencies. If I can find a TNC
to borrow (or worst case buy one) and buy a few of the tracker kits to
hook to Sheriff's radios, I should be able to demo it on an existing
channel -- right?
All (helpful) suggestions and comments will be gratefully accepted. :-D
Many thanx............... jt
