Hi!
Great forum btw.
I would like to come up with a really small gps/FRS receiver/transmitter unit to fit into a cylindrical (< 13 mm in diameter) case - size constraints seem to be a pretty common GPS tracking theme.
I think I need a power supply, GPS receiver, APRS unit, and two antennas.
There doesn't appear to be a pre-fab unit available. Maybe someone could add to my parts list and ??
I was hoping someone would at least point me in the right direction and help get me started. I don't have much EE experience at all (my background is civil engineering and I had a basic circuit design class as an undergrad), but I am willing to put forth the effort.
Thanks for any help!
