Hello, this is KC0TFB, Peter Gamache. I coordinated APRS operations for the
Minnesota Multiple Sclerosis Society's MS-150 fundraising bicycle tour this
year, last Friday, Saturday and Sunday. As part of the safety team (dozens
of dedicated and skilled ham operators), we ensured the safety of
How does xastir deal with a dual port TNC such as the KPC4? Incoming
packets are ID'ed by port number (ie 0 or 1). When they are digipeated are
they digipeated out on same port they were heard on, or is the port ID
stripped and port 0 substituted? Can ports be bridged?
I'm asking because I'm
Peter, Thanks for sharing this story; I love hearing how other people use APRS
as a tool in their event management toolbox.
Do you plan to make either the VM or the scripts available for others to use?

AX.25 kernel can handle multi-port TNC's like the KPC-4 and Kam by means of
the mkiss binary - it's kind of tricky, but it does work - I've done it in
the past. See the AX.25 howto for some info on how to set it up.
There ya' go!

Yup, sounds like a solution. Thanks guys.

Hi Peter,
We too used Xastir this past weekend for our MS-150 Bike Tour in
central Virginia. It worked quite well, though we did not deploy it
nearly as extensively as you did. I primarily used it as a vehicle
tracking system, though I did create objects for each rest stop. Next

Will xastir read from a pipe instead of a serial port device special
file in the TNC interface code?
I had the idea of a simple daemon that would speak MKISS to the TNC,
then break out individual streams over named pipes and let xastir talk
to them.
An alternative idea was to add a KISS network

Greetings all,
I have a question for the GIS people on the list.
The Indiana Department of Natural Resources produces a shapefile (and
associated metadata) of public recreational trails in Indiana. This is
very useful for SAR, and I'm trying to use this shapefile in Xastir.
I've done the ogr2ogr
You will have to edit the file in a GIS program, such as Quantum GIS.
There may be structure links in the file that should not be there or the
conversion went wonky. I have some shapefiles that I have had to go in and
clean up as the labels were in the wrong places.

I have been trying to figure out ways to do this without ldsped, and they
all seem to revolve around kissnetd and remserial.

Someone here just mentioned socat in this thread. I've never used it, but
it appears that it could possibly be exactly the tool for the job:

Has anyone used socat to connect interfaces directly this way? If it
Hi All.have Xastir running on LinuxMint7
this distro is based on Ubuntu 9.04 and uses the repositories to get all
the needed files.
looks very good and works well
