Bob,
    
I could have something available for option#2 in a week or so, freely available. I've been working on this sort of usecase for some time now, but I haven't been in charge enough to deploy it.And I'm still working on adding supplemental information to the reports from one-way trackers, like how many injured/exhausted bicyclists riding in a SAG vehicle.Andrew, KA2DDOauthor of YAAC

There sounds like two paths emerging.- Come-as-you are with APRS radios in the mobile as the end terminal unit   Everybody has one- Invent something new with PC's, clients, Pi's, displays, for use at home(or front seat mobile?  Nobody has one-----Original Message-----From: aprssig <aprssig-bounces at lists.tapr.org> On Behalf Of Shawn StoddardSent: Tuesday, December 3, 2019 7:01 PMTo: aprssig at lists.tapr.orgSubject: Re: [aprssig] Multi control station situational awareness - How'sthis supposed to work?Great sanity check.
