#Pinpoint aprs software#

OK so you’re probably wondering: where would this software and its functionality be useful? Well basically for what is was intended for: Search and Rescue! But of course you could also use it for other things like exchanging bearings on a fox hunt, messaging when the Internet goes down, etc. See my entire message log here including past messages via other stations. Messages back and forth took less than a minute to receive over RF and were stored in a log. I sent a message from KM6ZPO to KM6ZPO-14 (the SSID for my SARTrack radio-only station).Īs you can see in the screenshot below, the message was received and I was then able to carry on a conversation (with myself) in “chat” style. To simulate a station to station test, on another computer connected to the Internet, I used FindU’s APRS Messaging Interface. I had no problem receiving other stations’ info on the main map. My location was indoors next to the window of my 5th floor office in Newport Beach, CA. I turned off the Internet connection on my laptop and used only my Kenwood TH-D72A tuned to 144.390 and connected via TNC to the SARTRack software. SARTRack has a built-in messaging feature that lets you exchange messages via APRS stations through a handy interface that resembles simple email. It’s not really an apples to apples comparison.Īs I started digging into the features, I found something VERY useful.

Judging from the help manual of SARTRack alone, I can tell I have a lot to learn! NOTE: I’m in no way saying that SARTrack is better than PinPoint APRS. the casual user who would probably prefer the simpler interface and setup of PinPoint APRS. While the two software packages are similar in basic functionality, I would say that SARTrack is designed more for the serious user who needs a lot of information and communications vs. At first I was just curious about the software in comparison with another APRS tracker I use, PinPoint APRS. Today I tested SARTrack ( ), a program jam packed with features for APRS users and search and rescue teams.
