Install-Anywhere Bluetooth Mobile Radio with APRS

Let's take a look at the "wireless" mobile radio from Vero. This fully APRS-enabled radio leverages bluetooth and your smart phone for configuration and control. No space on on your dash for a mobile radio? Don't want to run power and feedline through your car? No problem. The Vero can be installed anywhere. In your trunk, next to your battery or antenna. Talk through your phone, car-bluetooth, or convenient wiresless speaker-mic accessories from Vero. I was skeptical about selectivity/sensitivity on this radio at first, but it easily pulls down weak APRS packets from distant stations. This is a full featured APRS packet radio with igate, positioning and text-messaging capabilities. At US$180, it's an ideal price point for a full-featured, full power, dual-bander mobile rig.
