I have an Igate running APRX <linux> and has my TNC connected to it. On Mondays, I run a short APRS check in net, so I fire up xastir to qsl each check-in. However, I would like to send a qst prior to the net to remind locals nearish to check in, hence my desire to ensure once I send out a qst, it will at least get routed through my Igate.
In Xastir you set your outgoing RF path on the particular interface connected to the radio/TNC.
I have also had issues when using xastir <network connect, no rf> where local hams in range of my Igate didn't get the packets via the aprs servers which can be rather frustrating.
Inet traffic to RF is typically messages, ack's, and nak's, -only- if the station they're heading to has been heard by that particular Igate within the last hour on RF. Anything else heading to RF from Inet would require additions to the nws-stations.txt file in Xastir. Note that it can be used for more than just sending weather alerts to RF. -- Curt, WE7U. http://we7u.wetnet.net APRS in Search and Rescue: http://we7u.wetnet.net/search_and_rescue.html Coordinate Converter (Android): http://www.sarguydigital.com _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://xastir.org/mailman/listinfo/xastir
