If you have one pda at your base and 3 team members, you can get relative distances between you and your teammates, and because you have a static member, you can find absolute distances from that point. After that, you find the gps coordinates of that point, get a gps overlay, and you should be able to see all or your team on the map. One problem is elevation, which might screw with the locations.
haha there you go...you've got a nice new project to work on :P
