I've been running an I-gate (KC4LZN, acting as a fill-in digi/igate) for a couple of weeks now, mostly in support of a bike marathon to be run over two weekends here in Central Florida with the end of it coming this next weekend. This was to support the local hams performing communications to the various safety stops throughout the county.
I've noticed that some of the data coming through my station doesn't appear to be gating the proper information. I don't have a second receiver and/or computer with another program to compare it to. I am trying to find out if anyone else has experienced strange stations being reported with KISS and Xastir? One station will be traveling along with the proper call sign and in mid stream it may change a letter or even an SSID on the next report and then the next report will be correct. I've corresponded with Dave, KG4YZY at aprsfl.net through which my station is connected to and he has confirmed that it is being reported through my station/TNC. Has anyone else experienced this using Xastir/KISS? I've ran another TNC and another program (UI-View) with no issues from the same location and set up but since converting everything over to Linux, that is when it was being noticed. Please understand, I'm not finger-pointing, just trying to prevent being labeled a LID. I love all of what Linux and Xastir has to provide. Just want to improve the status of my station. I have a TR-7400A on receiving the data for throughput to the server ( aprsfl.net) and a PK232 MBX in KISS mode connected to a Dell Desktop computer. 73 John _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
