01 APRS Operation (Written by Bob Bruninga, WB4APR)
Other Data Entry Stations
But we should not lose sight of the home station that can also be used as a great information resource. The next photo
shows a station that was set up in a motel room and the operators there could monitor all of the activities on the various
nets and enter this situational information into their APRS PCs. All of this data would show everywhere on APRS. AND,
through the miracle of wireless (ham radio), they do not have to be at the site. They can be anywhere convenient, just
monitoring, and managing the data.

REMEMBER:
If you are not using the full potential of APRS, it is not the fault of the protocol or the hardware. APRS is a
communication tool, not just an automated map....use it. But in most cases, that means ENTERING DATA, not just
watching it.
