</span>I've hacked out perl scripts that re-mangled data into APRS objects<br>
and sent them to xastir via a server port. This looks like an ideal<br>
candidate if you had that compass and a GPS.<br>
<br>
I've also seen 3D compass solutions (using 3 axis magnetometer / 3<br>
axis accelerometer sensors) on the raspberry pi. you could probably<br>
take the 3D compass solution, ingest the strike report and spit out an<br>
APRS object, either over an IP connection or out a serial port as if<br>
it were a TNC.<br>
