    And if so, are there any pointers to how to get the data from the

    than he'd like to do, but if the I/F is simple enough, this might be
    a capability worth adding to APRSISCE/32...<br>

                    <p style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Hi All,<br>
                      I am a physician and volunteer for the scouts as
                      well as for our neighborhood Community Emergency
                      Response Team (CERT). I hope to establish a base
                      station on a Windows PC that can receive and
                      display the location and message packets exchanged
                      with Garmin Rino radios deployed in the field and
                      update these on a moving map tactical display as
                      new information is received from the Rinos.
                      Ideally this software program could integrate
                      packets also from Automatic Packet Reporting
                      System (APRS) enabled amateur radio stations as
                      well. I hope to use the application for
                      coordination of scouting activities in the
                      backcountry as well as CERT search and rescue
                      operations where a cellular grid may not always be
                      available. It would be great to include position
                      data for each party member using whatever hardware
                      is capable of sending this information including
                      cellular data when available given the largest
                      number of users with this hardware. Ideally a user
                      could have an identifier and if the cell grid went
                      down use GMRS or amateur radio as a backup. I
                      would hope to be able to see the position of each
                      member of the party on a more detailed map with
                      better data entry options than the small display
                      of the rino to allow for more efficient
                      communication. I currently own two Rino 530HCx
                      models and two 530's as well as a Kenwood TH-D72A
                      and Kenwood TM-D710 which have terminal node
                      controllers that allow for use with the Automatic
                      Packet Radio System. I have found Bob Bruninga's
                      APRS to be a brilliant example of ingenuity. I am
                      hoping though to include exchange of data with a
                      broader variety of hardware given that I am
                      interfacing with many persons with a variety of
                      technical backgrounds and equipment in these
                      activities.<br>
