Not Amateur Radio, but a commercial product with $$$ to back it up
instead of volunteers providing an ad-hoc infrastructure. And it's
also not hampered by backward compatibility issues with 7+ year old
non-upgradable software running on at least 14% of the stations
active worldwide (including statistics dilution by CWOP and Firenet
stations) within the past two hours.<br>
<br>
Not even worth comparing nor discussing on an APRS sig, IMHO. But
I'll keep my delete button warmed up just in case.<br>

put out consistent tracking just about anywhere in the US,
Canada, Mexico..so why can't APRS come even close!?! Also
