Yeah. Good stuff. Meanwhile loving my cheap windows tablet.
I like the three I got dirt cheap. Still under the cost of a single I-Phone. Mine was responsible for the recovery I made reference to in #27 above. I am an ardent proponent of NMEA/GPS tracking with a tablet now. Easier than a laptop.
The thing I am salivating over is YAAC: https://www.ka2ddo.org/ka2ddo/YAAC.html
Once the author gets it to work with Bluetooth devices in Windows it will be the easiest mapping program one could setup to have a map in hand. If one has a tablet along with their NMEA/GPS tracker, they will have a free tracking program
with portable maps they can take in the field to track their rockets. No internet required in the field. Way so much easier to setup than APRSIS/32 with the photomap solution I show in the link above.
The maps are Open Source (again spell them free) that will give roads and major geographical items of interest.
The procedure is load Java on one's tablet. Install YAAC and I'd recommend putting it on a large micro SD card and manually going into the YAAC setup and changing the map directories to the "D:" drive. Can download the needed maptiles and be ready to go quickly. Kurt
