Hi All,
I would like to add a Kenwood 710GA to my Jeep. The goal would be that I could use the APRS feature with the integrated GPS (in the 710GA) and somehow display APRS stations fixed and mobile as well as my buddies who are also running APRS capable radios. I currently use a Samasung Galaxy Tab S2 8" tablet for navigation. I know the 710GA has the GPS built in and the interface-- I have a tablet with an 8" screen... what does my solution look like?
Questions:
Thanks-- please try to make it simple for me-- my head already hurts from typing it out ...lol

Questions:
- What additional hardware do I need?
- Will I be able to see local APRS originators close by, on my map so that I have a good bit of sitiauional awareness?
- Is it as simple as properly configuring my radio and then connecting the radio to the tablet via a certain type of cable or optional wireless bluetooth something or other?
- Thoughts on the idea in general?
