[NLRS] APRS question (again)

[John (JK) Kalenowsky, K9JK]

Jon,

Not sure what you mean by "APRS Interface Solution" but if you are 
looking for the 'piece' to which you can connect a GPS unit (with 
appropriate interface, typically 'serial'/RS-232...NOT USB) and it 
will generate the audio modem tones containing (one of) the APRS 
defined formats for the beaconing protocol(?) that can then be fed 
into the transmit audio of an FM Transceiver; the two most popular 
seem to be TinyTrak by Byon Garrabrant (N6BG)/Byonics at 
http://www.byonics.com/tinytrak/ or OpenTracker by Scott 
Miller(N1VG)/Argent Data Systems at 
http://n1vg.net/opentracker/index.php.

There's ALSO a unit called "FreeTrak" 
http://www.ringolake.com/pic_proj/gps_trak/freetrak202.html by a Mike 
Berg, N0QBH, who lives a little bit west of the Twin Cities.

73, JK
