The above images were generated from a CGI script on findu.com. Steve Dimse, K4HG, developed the site to give anyone with Web access the ability to track APRS stations. With some help from Steve, I was able to create an image of a Sectional chart and use his data to plot my reported positions. The position reports are sometimes not accurate, as the chart and the GPS coordinates don't match 100% of the time. Also, a receiving station needs to be within listening range of my transmitted signal and forward it through the Web in order to appear on this site. Even though I transmitted my position every minute, only about 70% of the positions made it to the Web site. Click here for all of my APRS stations and locations Click here to see my APRS setup
