Hi Lynn, Not sure what you mean by this. “Out of curiosity, do you happen to know what Direwolf does with the "extra" telemetry station ID's if you start with a full station callsign like KJ4ERJ-12?” Hmm, it seems that maybe I left out a setting in the .CONF since the telemetry looks like it is sent correctly. 2021-08-16 07:37:00 EDT: N7FMHL-1>APDW17,UNCAN,WIDE2*,qAR,N3LEE-4:!4259.90N/07130.39WGN7FMH LiFe-Po4|!x.n/Z!##.bg| 2021-08-16 09:52:04 EDT: N7FMHL-2>APDW17,UNCAN,WIDE2*,qAR,W1TG-1:!4259.90N/07130.39WGN7FMH LiFe-Po4|"0bf-&!4JY%^| The intent is for N7FMH-2 to send telemetry definitions and telemetry as N7FMHL-x. Thank You! Best regards, Fred N7FMH

But your problem is how Direwolf is sending out the telemetry definitions. The definition of the definitions is a station sending a message to itself, not a station sending a message to another station.

APRSISCE/32 will not treat those as telemetry definitions, but as messages addressed to those stations. The spec doesn't explicitly say who the sender of the messages is allowed/expected to be, only that the messages are addressed to the station that will be generating the telemetry. To avoid false definitions, I decided a long time ago that the definitions should also come FROM and be addressed TO the exact station generating the telemetry. Out of curiosity, do you happen to know what Direwolf does with the "extra" telemetry station ID's if you start with a full station callsign like KJ4ERJ-12?

I tinker with direwolf.conf and the Python script every now and then, so, it is very possible something was broken. However, in theory, the only thing I changed recently was the offset. I found I was generating a negative value occasionally.

The program might be barking at that. Have you tried it with a three letter suffix? Greetings Lynn, I have a bit of a telemetry mystery. The station is N7FMH-2 and telemetry packets are for N7FMHL-1 and N7FMHL-2. There is no record of telemetry in my APRSIS32.xml. However, It does show up on APRS.FI (copies below). That is the mystery. N7FMH-2 is a battery box with a Raspberry Pi Zero running Direwolf Version 1.7A. It is only over RF. Direwolf 1.7A has a feature which allows N7FMH-2 to send multiple telemetry packet by changing the “source”. It is sending from two sources, N7FMHL-1 and N7FMHL-2. There are 10 fields in use. Thank you!
