A portable GPS/radio unit communicates over a wireless radio network with
at least one other unit which is transmitting radio signals over the
network indicative of that unit's location. The GPS/radio unit comprises
a GPS receiver for receiving satellite signals from a plurality of
satellites, a radio receiver for receiving the radio signals transmitted
by the other unit, a processor for calculating the unit's location as a
function of the received satellite signals and for identifying the
location of the other unit based on the received radio signals, and a
display for indicating the location of the other unit. The display may
indicate the respective locations of multiple units and may also display
unique identifiers for each of the units. A system and method for
indicating the location of one portable GPS/radio unit on the display of
another portable GPS/radio unit involves at least two such units
communicating with one another over a wireless radio network.
