The brochure says NOTHING about APRS, only that the radios can exchange 
position by sending NMEA data to each other. This radio also does NOT have a 
GPS built in. Does anyone know why it is that no one will make a modern APRS 
radio? Why can I buy a marine VHF with a built in moving map/gps and DSC 
position polling but Icom and Kenwood can't figure out putting a GPS in a 
radio when every cell phone will soon have one?
