[NBLUG/talk] GPS solution for anti-theft

[Glenn Kerbein]

Zack,

GPS is a passive protocol; your coordinates are verified though a 
handshake on your receiver and the satellite. I can plug a GPS receiver 
into my tower now and get my home's exact GPS coordinates. However, if 
you have an object that is moving or need to remotely retrieve the 
coordinates (your bike), then you need to have a remote access system 
(satellite ISP or cellular ISP).

Best,
Glenn
