JohnG3,
Thank you. It is really a simple setup. I have a GPS unit that routes its information to a translation device that then sends the info on to a Ham Radio. The Ham Radio then broadcasts the info. If another Ham Operator "hears" my broadcast and either then sends my info directly into the internet..... if so equiped.... if not then the info may get re-broadcast until such time as it does get sent into the internet. Of course this all takes place at near the speed of light so it has taken me much longer tell you about it than it does to actually do it!

Thanks for asking and I hope I didn't make things worse with my explanation.
