I was wondering if anyone has come along a program that would allow the use of live APRS location data from a high altitude balloon to be converted for azimuth and elevation control of a rotor on the ground for antenna control... to receive
relative
"weak" ATV signals.
The original MacAPRS did that and the APRSdos APRS-TK version will point a simple TV rotator to AZ/EL for satelllites. But I neer got around to the terrestrial pointing whichi would only take a few minutes of programming. But I lost my source code..
However, I am slowly re-doing it and hope to have a small PIC controller soon that will point TV rotators easily.
