Brian...would you mind describing your rover-tracking strategy to the 
full-list?  What software do you use, how do you set it up to highlight Rovers, 
etc?

APRS (and it's simplex version called HamIM) is a very powerful and 
underutilized resource for tracking Rovers.  We could all benefit, if you'd be 
willing to share.

Kind regards,
Ev, W2EV
