All,
This will not be a problem soon... David / W3TOJ has already volunteered to assemble an APRS station with club owned equipment.  We already have mostly what is needed in inventory.

Below is a copy of an e-mail I sent to David on this subject.

David,

At our May meeting, you volunteered to work on assembling an APRS station for CARA.

In order to assure that we have the proper equipment in our inventory to accomplish this station, can you put together a list of what equipment, cables, and antenna you will need?  I will do my best to see that you get what is needed.

Thanks for taking on this task.  73,

Ron / WA4PRR
CARA Secretary
