Robust Packet Radio HF APRS

So you've been hearing me tell you all about Robust Packet Radio and its use for HF APRS.

This map shows you just how effective it is with a partial list of HF Gateway stations located on both coasts of the continental US, as well as north to south that heard me (VE6AB-15) over the course of 6 hours on this day, as I drove the route shown in purple, and running RPR HF APRS in my mobile.

The closest HF Gateway that heard and gated my mobile on this day was VE6EN-10 located in Calgary, the furthest HF Gateway shown in the list that heard and gated me is W3LUZ-7 at 3200 kilometers located in Pennsylvania .
Other distant stations in the list are AG6IF-4 located in California, KE7XO located in Nevada, and N0KQX-9 located in Kansas, as well as K7MT-8 located in Helena MT.

Its gives one a good feeling knowing that your always connected, no matter your course of travel on any given day.
