Err... It's not exactly an "APRS Transmitter". <br>
<br>
There is no GPS and no TNC or TinyTrack equivalent included -- just
a very low-power FM transmitter. You will have to add a case, GPS
receiver, and TNC of some sort thereby doubling the cost. For that,
you can get one of those Chinese-made Sainsonic 5-watt all-in-one
APRS trackers off eBay.<br>
