About this book

This book is a clear, modern, real-world guide to automatic packet reporting system (aprs) as it is actually used today: for situational awareness, emergency communications, off-grid operations, mobile tracking, telemetry, and shared operational mapping when voice and internet fall short.

Discover advanced configurations, experiment with diy projects, and delve into the nuances of mobile antenna systems. Safety is prioritized with vital information on handling equipment and understanding rf exposure, ensuring that your radio repair endeavors are both effective and secure.
