Greg, Yes, I understand the bottom line, but CPU and RAM are really inexpensive these days. The way I am set up, I can use any computer in the house for APRS and/or for RF. Any combination I want without reconfiguration within the program. Sadly, I have too many computers. I just enabled the firenet port on my tablet, I think it is in the configuration you are suggesting. In the scroller, I am seeing a lot of stations scrolling by that are not RF. I tried configuring the scroller to view RF only, and it helped, but it appeared only partially effective. Those stations may be from firenet since I have IS disabled. I will work with it some more, and also try to filter non-rf at the IS server, but since the firenet port is not my IS port, I’m not sure how to apply them. I think filters applied by the configuration menu are applied to the APRS-IS port only. I will work on it more tomorrow. Regards. Mark, KE6BB Sent from Mail for Windows 10

That's what I was thinking. One instance is less CPU and RAM consumed, but gives only a single filter to the screen data at a time.

Just another hint, you know you can point both instances to a single directory and they'll share tiles? Even when I get MBTiles support finished in APRSIS32, multiple instances will be able to concurrently share a tiles database. Not so on Android or under MOAI, but APRSISCE/32 has the advantage of invoking the SqLite C API natively.

Yes! I have been doing that for some time. Good to know that MBTiles can also be shared. I am looking forward to using them. BTW, this dual instance all started because I wanted easy APRS only viewing at times, and easy weather watching other times without a lot of reconfiguring in going back and forth. You were working with others on HF/VHF instances, so I thought, “Why not give it a try!” It just stuck. Once I implemented shared tiles, which took a lot of careful XML file editing, the resources to run 2 instances dropped dramatically. Tnx. Mark KE6BB Sent from Mail for Windows 10

Subject: Re: [APRSISCE] Other type Packets
Those are the packets generated by your IGate and are only indirectly related to the gating activity.

You have Configure / Status enabled with Timestamp checked but not GridSquare. If you're beaconing a position (and you are) then it is best NOT to check GridSquare because then you'd be transmitting two different precision locations and some APRS clients will
ping-pong your station between them.
2020-04-28 13:20:58 EDT: KD4APP-5>APWW10,TCPIP*,qAC,T2POLAND:@172100h3451.48N/08356.15W#!INSERVICE!APRS-IS for Win32 - 2-way iGate
That's your posit packet. Various portions of this are configured via Configure / Beacon. You might want to set your Configure / Beacon / Mic-E Notification to None (you current have it as !INSERVICE!) as that doesn't really communicate anything helpful when
using non-Mic-E posits.
2020-04-28 14:21:31 EDT: KD4APP-5>APWW10,TCPIP*,qAC,T2HAKATA:<IGATE,MSG_CNT=0,LOC_CNT=13,DIR_CNT=4,RF_CNT=14,DX=10*N4NE-2(45mi@196<0xb0>)
That's your IGate status message that says that you have copied 13 stations locally, 4 of them direct, and 1 additional station is beyond the "local" range. You have not gated any messages from the -IS to RF and the furthest station you've recently copied
is N4NE-2 which is 45 miles away at 196 degrees.

Totally new to APRS - I setup an iGATE with APRIS and a TT4 and am receiving a number of packets, but I believe I saw that only position packets will get gated to IS? I am seeing the position packets nearby get sent to IS and show up on my "stations heard
direct" in aprs.fi.
How can I look at the other packets and see what king of packets they are and if they are position packets why they are not being sent to IS?
TIA & 73,

Um, so I'm running one instance of APRSIS32, and have both IS and
Firenet ports defined. But the Firenet port doesn't have Transmit
enabled, nor any of the iGate check boxes (RF to IS or IS to RF).
Isn't that effectively the same, but all on one screen?

Note that you should NOT connect an IGate to firenet. I've
been told that firenet's 14580 ports are not internally

stations you've gated and therefore you will not receive
messages addressed to those stations nor courtesy posits from
the originators of those messages.
If I thought about it hard enough, I could probably come up
with a combination of APRSIS32 instances to pull off gating
nearby strikezone objects from the -IS to RF without actually
using firenet as the IGate connection, but given their update
frequency during a storm, I really don't think you'd ever want
to actually do this.

If you own a receiver, you have access to their raw data. I
wrote an APRSISMO extension that polls this data, massages it,
converts it to APRS packets, and injects them into firenet on a
port that does NOT propagate to the APRS-IS.

PS. Release it!
It is ready!
Yes! I've had 2 instances running most of
the day...One for "normal" APRS traffic (RF & IS), and a
second one for NWS traffic on firenet for weather (tornado)
watching. No problems so far.
I love the program! Thank you.

Subject: [APRSISCE] Ready
for Release?
So, according to the second ("Upgrades")
telemetry graph for KJ4ERJ at
aprs.fi, it appears that the upgrades are slowing down. So
the $20,000
question is: For those of you running the latest
development release,
is it ready to be pushed out as the first General release
since 2012?

Mark, KE6BB
Thanks for the reminder, Fred. I had forgotten about Lynns lightning server. I noticed that I had -b/KJ4ERJ-LS in my filters which I changed to b/KJ4ERJ-LS, and it works! Now I remember that I used the “-“ to turn the filter off without having to take it clear out of the Configure menu. That keeps it handy so I can turn lightning on or off without having to look it up. I found an old message (#29727 dated 10/22/16 in groups.io) that says to, “…specify a filter of b/KJ4ERJ-15 or o/LS*…”, but that may be old info. I haven’t tried either of them recently: https://groups.io/g/APRSISCE/message/29727 Lynn does of great job of keeping me from hanging out in bars all night 😜. Mark, KE6BB

If your asking if it's ready for prime time, I'm running the 4/27 16:06 version and while I've not exercised everything, nothing has acted buggy.
Only problem I'm chasing is KPC3 KISS status upon program shutdown but that's probably an edit to the config file that I have to tackle.

Oops. Just upgraded... I was waiting for things to stabilize; guess I
waited too long.
Seems to be working. This is under Wine on a Linux box.

Yes, and for now that feature (filtered -IS to RF gating) will
remain only enabled with Development in the XML config file.
Until I can get some sort of throttling implemented, I don't want
it "generally" available.
