[aprssig] OpenTracker prototype / beta units for sale

[scott at opentrac.org]

Well, that got way more response than I expected!  I'll be answering emails
in the order I received them.  

Looks like it's time to hurry up and finish the next round of prototypes,
and get this thing in production.  Now if only I didn't have this pesky day
job.  =]
