I'm writing my own windows program for APRS. At the moment, it's a bit
primative, but it's a big step up from dumb terminal programs, and a sight
cheaper than WinAPRS.

Features:

Split window communications with TNC.
Beacon message initiated from PC or TNC, allowing fixed operation.
Fixed or mobile modes.
AEA, Kantronics, Kenwood DC, MFJ, and Pico TNC's supported

I will soon parse the received text. I'll filter or highlight text based
on originating callsign. This will be useful for use with the ISS station,
and PCSat. If there's interest, I can use maps and/or open the "findu"
page on mouse command.

I may also incorporate a satellite tracker to alert the user of passes.

If you're interrested, please email me at k1...@cox.net, and I'll email
the executable back to you as an enclosure. It's about 250K, and 125K
zipped. Please specify if you want the zipped version.

The usual disclaimer: For the time being, it's free. Use at your own risk.


Al, K1QN
