Has anyone here tried CATS (Communication And Telemetry System). It appears to be an APRS work-alike with modern features.

Any thoughts on the project?

CATS - Communication And Telemetry System

I was using this map to look for #hamradio operators near me in good locations to put up an #AREDN node, and then reaching out to them to see if they wanted to mess around with it. I triangulated with #APRS activity to see who might be active in similar stuff, looked at QRZ pages (and lookups). So far I've emailed the person. Even though this is the density of operators near me:

Are there Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W work-alike boards that can handle a Linux install but beat the Pi Zero 2 with significantly reduced power consumption?

I'm building a DigiPi-based APRS repeater. I'm trying to bring my power consumption down without breaking the bank.
