As I recall, APRS is turned off by default on the TeleGPS.  It sounds like
APRS isn't turned on; you'll get the AltusMetrum packets (which are much
shorter and don't sound like APRS packets), and the APRS packets at the
interval you've configured via AltOS UI.

Ummmm,

   I was under the impression that the TeleGPS could be used a a straight
forward
APRS GPS tracker and used with a D72A.  I have the 1.5 v of the programming
software and am not receiving packets. I flashed the unit to 1.5  I can hear
data coming in but doesn't sound anything like an APRS signal. Did I make a
mistake of ordering?   I've tried AltOS UI and TeleGPS 1.5.   I was able to
connect to the unit and reprogram it, change the frequency etc but I don't
see a direct option for 
APRS tracking.  Data rates are too fast I believe.  Did I mistakenly mislead
myself?   Can I return for refund if it's not programmable to a straight GPS
tracker? Kurt KC9LDH
