# LoRa APRS Tracker
The LoRa APRS Tracker will work with very cheep hardware which you can buy from amazon, ebay or aliexpress.
Try it out and be part of the APRS network.
## Supported boards
You can use one of the Lora32 boards:
* TTGO T-Beam V0.7 (433MHz SX1278)
* TTGO T-Beam V1 (433MHz SX1278)
This boards cost around 30 Euros, they are very cheap but perfect for an LoRa iGate.
Keep in minde: you need a 433MHz version!
## Compiling
### How to compile
The best success is to use PlatformIO. Go to https://platformio.org/ and download the IDE. Just open the folder and you can compile the Firmware.
