Working on a useful APRS project

[Michael Chisena]

All,
 
 
Lee N6UDP turned me on to an inexpensive GPS puck sutable for APRS applications.
The pucks I have been using run about $70 each. 
These start at $37 each.
 
 
With a simple connector change it can be pressed into service.
Did the connector change last night based on this sketch.

This is a track from this mornings trip into work. 
As you can see KA2ZEV-7 works well.

See if you can spot any errors in the sketch.
 
 
When I convert a second one, there will be more photography.
 
 
Thanks in advance
Mike KA2ZEV

You go and get a mop so you can clean up your mistake. 

But did you ever stop to ponder why we know it's true? 

If you drop a broken egg you will not get an egg that's new?"
