color=#0000ff size=2>The Deluo GPS Lites are still a good option for APRS.
They're made by Polstar, based on the Sony CXD2951. Power consumption is
about 60 to 80 ma, haven't tried setting a low-power mode yet. I've been
carrying these for awhile, modified for direct connection to a tracker
(OpenTracker, TT3, etc), but I also stock them plain, with the factory mini-DIN
connector. You can also pop them out of the plastic enclosure for
integration in your own tracker box.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color=#0000ff size=2>I'm selling them for $58 plus shipping - not as good a deal
as below, but they're solid units and readily available in any quantity, and I
ship worldwide for actual postage plus $1.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

color=#0000ff size=2>If anyone knows of a low-cost NMEA GPS receiver that works
above 18km altitude, let me know! I'd like to carry the Garmin GPS 18, but
the quantities required for any sort of discount might not be worth it, since
the high-altitude feature is only really important to a minority of
users.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

APRS-centric products you'd like to see stocked, let me know - my OpenTracker
store seems to be slowly growing into a general APRS hardware store. Guess
I'll have to start selling Powerpoles soon. =]</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
