    Jeff Van Es - N6JSV shared this video with me as I was looking for a way to connect a tablet to my Yaesu FTM 400 XDR for displaying APRS beacons on BackCountry Navigator.

    I bought the splitters and adapter cable online at BH Photo.

    So it is January 1, 2021.

    I've received all the connection cables delievered to my door, a new tablet and I've downloaded BackCountry Navigator. I'm about to download APRSdroid and attempt to connect my Yaesu FTM400XDR using the data connection shown in this video. 

    The goal here is to get APRS data to appear on BackCountry Navigator while being able to charge the tablet all using a single line and no Bluetooth.
