I have been playing around with the Pic-Trak sw and would like to use
it at a fixed station to just monitor packets and TX my position.
However, there isn ot way to enter a Lat / Long. I placed my Lat /
Long in the status message as a work around. The problem is that most
trackers will not decode the status message and extract the position.
Is there a way to get the Pic-Trak to TX a postion without a GPS?

BTW, I had the energy detect problem on the PICPAC where I could not
get anyhting to TX unless I enabled the TX busy. I did some research
and found that there shouild be a 100pf cap in parallel with R1. I
made that change and the others suggested here - R2 is 100K and added
some decoupling caps to the MX614 and PIC. The PICPAC is working
great - very good decode and no lockups. TX busy is set to off, quit
time is 5 and Quiet Timeout is 15.
