    nice, really nice

    for some bizarre reason I didn't know anything about Pin Point until
    today .. as I spent quite some time researching about APRS and ended up
    with sdr-sharp (sdr-pp doesn't work for me) + direwolf

    I find sdr-sharp quite cumbersome and, honestly, given my needs for the
    APRS feature only it's like killing a fly with a bazooka

    You don't even need a radio. There's an android application for a mobile
    phone.

    Https://aprsdroid.org/

    I was using aprs to to track the progress of a SOTA operator today and
    noticed he was using the android app. I've just worked him on 2m, 4m
    and 13cm . Handy for SOTA as time-of-arrival at the summit can be a bit
    iffy.

    Thanks for that Brian, downloaded it to my inrico network radio and it works a treat, might even stick it in the car

    Short video of me sending my position from APRSdroid running on an Inrico TM8 and receiving it back through my local APRS IGate MB7UXX on 144.800

    https://youtube.com/shorts/XsaQTLzlSQk?feature=share

    Be handy to have in the car that

    Thanks again Brian
