Kenwood 710 "Tracking" and voice chat on 2mtr and 70cms. I often have one VFO listening to S20
I have installed APRSIS on my laptop for the tracking but this will only be used when I am not in my regular truck or when in places with no APRS coverage. The APRSIS software sends location data via the internet. APRSIS can be connected to a radio and TX/RX data but I will only be using it via the internet. More information on this software can be found HERE

Just got a Ranger RCI 2950 DX3 to fit in the truck. Also got a quarter wave stinger antenna and mount for the near side mirror arm. I also have the Ranger RCI 2995 DX at home in the radio shack.
13.8v dropper to power the Kenwood 710 and the Ranger 2950 DX3
This is used to record incase of accident.
For navigation in the truck I use the TomTom Start 60 with the bigger 6" screen
HSPA+ (High Speed Packet Access Plus) is an advanced technology which lets you get even more out of Three's network, giving you speeds up to 40% faster than you'd get with our previous dongles. This means that when you use an HSPA+ enabled device to access the internet, pages will load even quicker than normal on your phone or computer - and you can expect faster downloads too.

Well its real easy, I have a mobile internet connection from the 3 network "click here", this is the best value I have found in the UK and seems to have good coverage. The software I use is Adobe flash media live encoder 3.1 and its free to use, and it is sent to the Vaughn server and the main page links back to it for you all to view.
