The following information is sent in each position packet:

Now includes messaging between APRS stations.

Within the app you will need to specify your Callsign and Passcode. Pass codes are only available to licensed Ham Radio operators.

Within the app you may change the following information:

* Callsign

* APRS Symbol for choosing which icon will be displayed on APRS maps.

You may also use this app on iPad devices but a continuous location will be required, normally through GSM or WiFi.

Please note: This app uses the GPS feature of your device. Continued use of this app may drain the device battery sooner.

Please email matt@dstarcomms.com if you have any feature requests or bug issues. If you leave feedback reporting an issue I have no way of communicating with you to resolve the issue.
