+
+Keith and I are pleased to announce the immediate availability of TeleGPS
+v1.0!
+
+[TeleGPS](http://altusmetrum.org/TeleGPS) is our response to the many
+requests we've received for an easy-to-use tracking-only board that just
+provides GPS position information over radio. Combining the
+same uBlox Max 7Q GPS receiver used in
+[TeleMega](http://altusmetrum.org/TeleMega) and
+[TeleMetrum v2.0](http://altusmetrum.org/TeleMetrum) with a
+16mW transmitter yields a board that is 1.5 x 1.0 inches (38.1 x 25.4 mm).
+
+As usual for our products, TeleGPS is designed for use under FCC Part 97
+(ham radio) rules or equivalent authorization. In addition to the GPS
+receiver and UHF radio transmitter, TeleGPS includes on-board flash data
+storage and a micro USB connector for configuration, post-flight data
+download, and to power a LiPo battery charger.
+
+TeleGPS works with our existing ground station products and/or any radio
+equipped with APRS support, and also emits audible radio direction finding
+beeps. While TeleGPS can be used with our existing
+[AltosUI](http://altusmetrum.org/AltOS) and
+[AltosDroid](http://altusmetrum.org/AltosDroid) ground station software,
+Keith is working on a simpler, dedicated application optimized for use
+with TeleGPS.
