  FoxView3 Rev 0511

 

 

This version is based on modification suggested by F4EYW/ OM Benoit. It uses MX614 modem's receiving capability to enhance PIC88's packet reception.

1. APRS Viewer on 4 x 20 LCD

2. APRS Position Encoder (Fix Home Position or GPS)

3. Built-in "Fill-in" Digi

4. APRS TNC (APRS DATA from Radio to PC) 

5. GPS support

6. Its a Tracker with GPS!

Designed with a large 4x20 Characters Back-lite LCD Display, FoxView3 only requires an audio input from your receiver or transceiver and a DC 12V supply. FoxView3 is basically designed for APRS Demos, general Viewing of APRS Data while moving and Personally, I would love to have this device to monitor APRS activities at my home without using a PC!!

After all these goodies, it should not cost a fortune. In fact, with few components from here & there, you will be able to build this viewer/encoder yourself & enjoy APRS activities.

FoxView3 is basically combination of Peek_SVW and FoxDigi which proved to be very useful project for Amateur Radio.
