[aprssig] Cows ... uuh ... CATS In Space

[Andrew Pavlin]

 Of course, the biggest problem with this is: how much is Kitty going to object to having something bulky around her neck? My late Mad Chewer would chew a harness off His Royal Catness in mere minutes. If the cat dumps the tracker, it won't help much (except to find where the tracker was abandoned).
Also, how good (i.e., high) of a receiving antenna can you put up at your home to make up for the lousy antenna at the transmit side?

 I did a similar project with a LoRa module, just 20 x 25 mm..

Interestingly enough, QST did a review of my 70cm 100mw BeeLine GPS/APRS transmitter in September 2007.

What about LoRa-APRS? Did you consider that?
It uses very small trackers (bigger than AirTags) with 100 mW at 70 cm UHF.
