GMRS GPS Node Tracking

Put your node on the map.

Add GPS to your GMRS node and let family and friends follow along, whatever network you're on.

What is node tracking?

GMRS GPS Node Tracking is for any GMRS user on any network. Plug a USB GPS receiver into your node, and it sends its position to a shared live map.

Use it so family and friends can see where you are on the road, keep an eye on your own mobile node, or simply show where your base or repeater sits. You choose how often it reports, and you can turn tracking on or off from your radio.

One account lets you track up to 10 nodes, so your base, your truck and your portable can all be on the map under the same call sign.

  • Repeaters and base stationsFixed locations with their call sign, so you know what's on the air near you.
  • Mobile operatorsVehicles and portables that move across the map as new reports come in.
  • Live detailsSpeed, heading, altitude, satellites and when each node was last seen. Track it, get directions, or share its location.
