<font size="-1"><font face="Comic Sans MS">I am thinking of working
on an Android based APRS HUD. Originally it will be for phones
but later be put on tablets. I know there are a couple of other
Android APRS's. I think a focus on messaging HUD is a different
approach. I haven't myself seen any HUDs or displays on APRS
capable radios so am asking for advice and suggestions. My
approach is to keep it simple and functional. <br>
<br>
I have looked at Bob's web page about messaging and HUD. <br>
<br>
My first thoughts are not to do a moving map display, at least
not on the cell phone version, since that is readily available
with Google Maps and GPS navigators. The question is whether
having a map with nearby APRS units is sufficiently important to
include a map capability on a tablet version. <br>
<br>
Any comments or suggestions are appreciated.<br>
