USB GPS Function?
Posted: Thu Dec 16, 2021 3:17 pm
Apologies if this is not in the correct section but have looked through the previous post and mn a bit confused still.
What is the function or the purpose of the Mobile GPS Configuration? Is it so you can attach a USB GPS puck to the pi and allow it to post APRS location via the internet? If this is the case, how is it achieved.
I have attached a USB GPS to my pi. I can see data being passed to the pi from the USB port (sudo cat /dev/ttyACM0) but not sure how or what else needs to be done to deliver tracking. I can see the location of the pi on APRS.FI if I enable the APRS host in the main config section.
Sorry if this sounds like gibberish but I am a little confused.
Thanks in advance for the help and support.
