Just became aware of OruxMaps and will be getting an Android tablet to use it with now.  Very interested to find out the app has APRS support.  



Can anyone tell me is it only via APRS-IS or can it communicate via serial or Bluetooth for positions or packets?  I use my GPS receiver offline primary and having the ability to locate other stations using RF (no Internet) would be very useful.  



I'm using a Garmin handheld receiver at the moment and my APRS radio modem provides NMEA data via a RS232 cable (could easily add a RS232<->Bluetooth adapter) that it places as waypoints.  So native APRS AX.25 functionality isn't strictly necessary.  



Thank you for the hard work!
