MicroTrak AIO Testing

After configuring the MicroTrak, we took the device outside of Strong Hall to see if we could get a signal at the ground station, which was positioned just inside of the building by an open window. The MicroTrak auto transmitted every two minutes and gave us a position of right outside Strong Hall, as expected. The position was also recorded on the APRS website with Google Maps as shown below. We used the call sign KD8WQP.
