  1. That's what I was kinda wondering.  BTech may be using something similar but different, I was to understand from the info they gave that it was APRS but on GMRS frequencies.  I guess this will be my project this weekend to try and see if I can setup APRS through another radio and APRSDoid.  I will try and see if I can see if it is indeed APRS or something proprietary they came up with.  Thank you for the suggestions on this. 

  2. I did download APRSDroid, tried to get to work with my GMRS radio using my phone connected via APRS adapter that changes from k1 format to 3.5mm.  Maybe I am missing something, I'll have to mess around with it a little more.  I was trying to see if I could see the messages to show up through my GMRS radio to the GMRS Pro Radio.  Just wasn't sure if there were other software to try like Xastir on a Raspberry Pi that might work.  Figured this would come in useful in emergency conditions to get a message out quickly to someone listening along with GPS data etc.  I am working on studying for Technician Class license but got my GMRS license couple of months ago and have been tinkering around with it. 

  3. I just got a BTech GMRS Pro Radio last month.  It can do aprs with other Pro radios but is there any software available that I can use with a tnc on another standard GMRS radio to receive messages.  I am looking at this more for emergency services usage and would like to be able to setup on the fly another radio to send and receive aprs.  I've seen a lot of how to for Ham radios but most of the software I find wants a Ham call sign to use and my GMRS call sign won't work.   Was curious about other folks setups.
