Rob,

Remember, btw, that I believe these are only the boards for
the connector to the GPSr board.  That is, it's just the board
at the top of this page:

http://www.cvarc.org/GPS%20PC%20and%2012%20volt%20details.pdf

For the rest of it, they didn't use PC boards.  The only other thing
that might have needed it was the 7805 power regulator and if you
look at this page, top left

http://www.cvarc.org/CVARC_APRS_Tracker.pdf

All they did was just solder the connections directly to the 7805
(including the needed capacitors).

Still, the interface to the GPSr board is the most problematic part
of this entire thing, so getting that PC board and the 20 pin header
from mouser will simplify things greatly.

Thanks for spearheading this and finding this group.

Cheers,
Tanner
