>Is it possible to be a receive-only APRS participant?  All I want to do is to decode what I can hear on my scanner and see it on my computer directly.  I'm interested in a hardware device to do the decode if possible.  IGWPE (did I spell that right?) doesn't interest me. Any opinions about choices available? 
it's AGWPE :-)
You'll need a TNC (or a software-based equivalent, like AGWPE,
decoding packet radio) to see the messages; a piece of mapping APRS
software to show positions on a map. UI-View 16 bit will do the
mapping part, and it'll run without registration.
