Wouldn't you know it, just after I send a test message to check to see if I'm still getting mail from the list. I find something worthwhile to post.
>From a Amateur Radio Mail List I frequent: ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: [aprssig] Re: Commercial APRS Service Date: Wed, 5 Nov 2003 13:36:54 -0800 To: "TAPR APRS Special Interest Group" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> And then too, of course, the "dramatic demonstration" from http://www.satsecurity.com/news103103.htm SAN DIEGO - October 31, 2003 -- Satellite Security Systems (S3), a global provider of asset security and logistics control, in cooperation with the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and InterState Oil Company, dramatically demonstrated the first wireless remote shutdown of a fully loaded moving petrochemical tanker truck. >From S3's headquarters in San Diego - 530 miles from the demonstration site - satellite communications were used to disable the truck in seconds, proving S3's GlobalGuardT and FleetGuardT a viable solution to the challenge of controlling rogue hazardous waste vehicles that could pose a threat to homeland security. The event, conducted on CHP Academy grounds in Sacramento and administered by the CHP, addresses ongoing concerns about the affordability of effective security technology, stealthiness of such a security device, and how GPS monitoring can be incorporated safely into law enforcement protocol. <snip> -- Neil Johnson http://www.njohnsn.com PGP key available on request.
