Do you ever have one clue about what you're posting.

Yes, I always do.

A GPS tracking unit is a device that uses the Global Positioning
System to determine the precise location of a vehicle, person, or
other asset to which it is attached and to record the position of the
asset at regular intervals. The recorded location data can be stored
within the tracking unit, or it may be transmitted to a central
location data base, or internet-connected computer, using a cellular
(GPRS), radio, or satellite modem embedded in the unit. This allows
the asset's location to be displayed against a map backdrop either in
real-time or when analysing the track later, using customized
software.

That is a system that uses a GPS receiver as one of its components. GPS
itself does not provide tracking. The DoD deliberately designed it that way.

That stupid. The whole system being built is a GPS tracking system to
space and direct flight paths. Your comments are completely erroneous
and stupid. Which, of course, won't stop you from babbling on. Just
watcj.

As I've already explained, GPS does not provide tracking. What is being built
is a system that uses GPS to determine position, but that is all. The rest is
independent of GPS.

Wow, another idiot you can dance around aimlessly with.



Lucky loon!
