and GARMIN eMap. TT is mounted in a metal housing with 7 x 5,2 x 4cm. On the front you can see the four status LED's and the two switches for power and for switching between the two settings. |
TinyTrack
is originally developed by Byon Gabarrant N6BG. You can find more info
about / buy it at BYONICS.
BYONICS delivers normally within 4-5days (also to Europe).
Distributor for Europe is WIMO.
I'm using the TinyTrack now since October 2000 without any problems for mobile operation in my car. I use it in combination with a modified DeLorme Tripmate GPS Receiver and a YS-130 2m TRX from DRAGON with 50W on 2m. (for normal use the 10W low power is enough). The YS-130 is mounted in the back of the car and is switched on/off via a 12V electronic power relay controlled by the TinyTrack. |
Backside of the housing with the two 9pin SUB-D for GPS in / PC config and TRX data in/out (GND,MIC,PTT,Speaker,+12V for TT/GPS and +Ub for the RIG-Relay on/off). | |
