Our office has just purchaced an ultrasonic positioning system for use in
field rad surveys.  I'm not sure what you're looking for - this system is
short range only (a few hundred feet), unlike GPS.

The product is called USRADS (Ultrasonic Ranging and Detection System), and
the company is

CHEMRAD
1055 Commerce Park Drive, Suite 104
Oak Ridge, Tennessee 37830
Phone (615) 481-2511
Fax (615) 483-0941

Your best first contact is probably Bob Highfill (VP Marketing).  If you
call, say hi for me.
