Thanks for the assist!
When I enter:
"/usr/sbin/kissparms -p 2 -t 20 -s 10 -r 32 -l 20 -f n"
... the response is:
"axconfig: port 1 not active"
"kisattach /dev/ttyACM0 2 12.34.56.78"
... to which the response was:
"AX.25 port 2 bound to device ax0"
I then opened Xastir where I had previously set my call,
coordinates, etc.
I am not seeing any APRS messages nor do I see how to
initiate one - it is unclear if Xastir even sees the
Tracker 3 or if the Tracker 3 sees the DR-135T.
I can view findu stations on the Xastir map - but that's
the Internet side of things.
Have I missed a step in setting up Xastir?
Did you set up an AX.25 interface in Xastir to talk to the AX.25 kernel
interface you configured with kissattach? kissattach only establishes
the port that Xastir can connect to, you still have to tell Xastir to connect
to it.
If not, you need to do that. Open Interface->Interface Control and make
sure you have an "AX25 TNC" interface defined. If you don't, click the "Add"
button and choose "AX25 TNC" as interface type, then fill in the dialog box.
The name of the interface you give in this dialog box is the one you gave
the port in the /etc/ax25/axports file, not "ax0". Looks like you've named
your port "2" so that's what you'd use. You might need to set a few KISS
parameters using "kissparms" before you use the port as well. In my
ax.25 set-up I do:
/usr/sbin/kissparms -p aprs -t 20 -s 10 -r 32 -l 20 -f n
(my port is named "aprs" where yours appears to be "2")
If you *DO* already have an AX.25 interface defined in xastir, then there
may be something else going on.
Try running "sudo axlisten -a -c" in a shell window and make sure that
the ax.25 kernel interface you've got traffic showing up on your ax.25 port.
If not, then you might have something else wrong in your ax.25 configuration
that has nothing to do with xastir.
