I presume you mean a GPS signal receiver that can also transmit its own position (received position of latitude and logitude) to another receiver wirelessly. The title of the product shows ....without sim card but in the features list it's showing GSM band 900/1800... etc.. If you know about SIM less GPS tracker please share a link for buy. So I am looking at making some GPS/GSM trackers which are attached to a vehicle and then used in the case of theft. They would be powered by the car's electrical and would also have a separate backup battery in case the thieves were smart and disconnected the electronics. The only problem I have seen in planning is the requirement for a sim card on GSM modules. I understand that I will be required to pay for service, but I need long range, maybe even international service which can send maybe 20 text messages at most. A pay as you go would be reasonable too. You can get a whole module for about $200 with a pay as you go plan for the service (tracking/disabling). Used car dealers use them for collection purposes, its a $200 insurance for guaranteed return on the vehicle when you default on a payment. INITIAL SET UP. Make sure your SIM Card is activated and there is fund in the account. Fully charge your battery before the very first use. Make sure your SIM Card can allow you to make calls, and send/receive messages.  I looked at alibabaDOTcom but I am confused about the product. The title of the product shows ....without sim card but in the features list it's showing GSM band 900/1800... etc.. If you know about SIM less GPS tracker please share a link for buy. You need to have credit on the SIM card in order to use it in the GPS tracker, just as you would if you were using it in a mobile phone. To recharge the SIM card, just put it in a cheap phone and buy a prepaid recharge. Then take out the SIM card and put it in the GPS tracker. Ok I'm hoping that the multi-rotor community can come through for me by helping me to figure out where to get a SIM Card for a GPS Tracker I just purchased online. I'm going to use it with my DJI 450 quad in case it ever gets lost. http://www.dhgate.com/gps-tracker-mi...html#s2-6-null Therefore, a GPS Tracker consists of two parts; 1) A GPS receiver and 2) another radio (a transciver; a radio that can transmit as well as recieve a signal). The GPS receiver cannot transmit. It can only receive its own location data from the satellite constellation in space.

It must have been unlocked because I didn't have a phone that would take a full sized sim to unlock it. Also the GPS tracker app works well, it composes the texts for you and you can cut and paste the long and lat info into the map.

I am going to buy a jaycar GPS tracker for my car which requires a GSM sim card and minimal data. It only really sends a few sms's and small amounts of GPS data so even a $5 a meg data plan would probably be sufficient.  Hi I'm looking for a prepaid sim card I can put into a gps tracking unit. Needs something that doesnt expire monthly and I don't have to recharge monthly. Thanks. Have a look at tpg $1 plan got cheap data and call usage. You got free 50MB a month, no contract but it will cost you $20 to buy the sim and $20 deposit.
