APRS users have fewer options w shutdowm of MSR maps
« on: May 13, 2012, 08:59:43 AM »
Now that the shutdown of MSR maps has happened one of the best APRS software packages, USAPhotomaps, is much less useful. The developer has indicated that he will not be upgrading the software. This would be a great time for Topofusion to start supporting basic APRS functionality.

Please give this some thought. The amateur radio community could really use a great piece of software like Topofusion if it supported APRS.

Good point.  I really wish the web protocols for APRS were easier to decipher.  I will try to dig into it again once the shutdown is confirmed.  ;)  Thanks for the note.
