using the B1 with APRSdroid or ATAK

In the Military radio FB group it was posted on how the T.Rex Arms is out to link Android programs like ATAK or OSMAND to a radio.  They even discussed APRSdroid.




This is the video that discusses this.  Maybe we could get them onboard as well.

Hey there N9NWO!

I'm an ATAK user (I work in the security industry) and also I'm working on developing some stuff for it. In regards to using it with the RFinder off of cellular, that would require the RFinder supporting IP over DMR (not DMR over IP).

It's built into the protocol specification but not many people implement the full TCP/IP stack in it like Motorola does. It would also need to support broadcast traffic on top of that. Your best bet of using it with the device is over cellular with a server or vpn that allows broadcast traffic until further research/development is done.

You can definitely use things like APRSDroid with the RFinder though.
