See a development site for live APRS telemetry data here: http://www.qsl.net/va3pla/telemetry.htm . I'm no expert in HTML so please forgive the rudimentary nature of the page. It is a quick "proof of concept" (well, maybe proof of concept for me anyway). What makes it somewhat unique is that the web page or hosting server is not pre-processing telemetry data and stuffing the page before sending it to you. The data is married within the page on YOUR computer (HTML client) much like the map pages from position reports. The idea is that anyone can add telemetry data within a basic knowledge of HTML. However, it is dependent on a server somewhere providing the telemetry data in a format suitable for insertion. Steve Dimse has been doing this for telemetry graphs at findu.com In this example, Scott's OpenTracker is used as the Remote Telemetry Unit which provides output in Volts and temperature. The event counter is a welcome enhancement. Thanks to Brad, N8QQ for his XML server which parses the data from APRSWORLD or Findu and makes it available in a directly usable format. He was quick to jump on an XQL suggestion for provided the desired information. See Brad's site at http://xml.n8qq.com/aprs/ for more information. Would this sort of approach enhance (ease?) the use of APRS telemetry? Any suggestions for additional enhancements or ways to approach this? '73 Tony K VE3TK
