Re: Rd transmission from my transceiver
I reset tnc several times as I discovered suggestions from the APRS community. Which required hard reset or jumper rotation. So I learned the significance of getting everything done before switching to KISS mode. The APRSISCE software is another hurdle that will some practice. Today you taught me how to get to Trace(transmit) and your suspension of port error was right on que. Since I've learned the maze of deleting an undesirable port. Thanks again for your help.

Re: Kpc3+ settings for APRSISCE
Gil
Please check your KPC3+ (or KPC3) once you've got it in operation. I have seen those TNCs delay packets for a significant amount of time before digipeating them. They are sometimes delayed so long that the system thinks they're new packets - and repositions my mobile station accordingly. I've seen my mobile beacons regurgitated by KPC3 digipeaters many minutes (and miles) after they were sent. On a recurring basis, it makes the track appear to be bouncing back and forth from where it most recently was (as digipeated by other digipeaters) to where it formerly was (at a former beacon location delayed by the KPC3) - many miles away (I think astronomers call it "retrograde motion" when they refer to the apparent observed motion of some planets). I have a problem with a KPC3 digipeater doing that right now (I need to try to contact the owner again...). I can see my beacons showing up from it 5 or more minutes after they were sent from my station at another location. It won't be obvious for a fixed station, but it sure shows up for mobiles. Please just check that your setup is not doing that. Monitor it for a while once you've got it going. This is apparently a known problem for some KPC3s. Lynn can probably provide information regarding what to do about it. Gil Chapin, WB2UTI

Doesn't the D-star repeater or hotspot also need to be running
D-PRS to take the received positions, reformat them, and inject
them to the APRS-IS? Lynn (D) - KJ4ERJ - Author of APRSISCE for Windows Mobile and Win32

Re: Rd transmission from my transceiver
Lynn Deffenbaugh
[INT] is an "INTernal" transmission used to propagate information strictly inside APRSISCE/32. [IS+RF] is a packet that would like to be transmitted on both APRS-IS and RF ports, but only if said ports are actually enabled for transmitting the specific type of packet. The Port(<YourPortName>) enabled and viewing is the next
place to look for why a packet may not be getting to your TNC. Lynn (D) - KJ4ERJ - Author of APRSISCE

Re: Rd transmission from my transceiver
Lynn Deffenbaugh
What makes you think the RF is being transmitted by a computer program? And how would you think said RF would get to an antenna? APRSISCE/32 runs on the PC and sends a packet via RS-232 (mostly)
to a TNC which converts that packet to AX.25 format (unless it is
a KISS interface) for transmission over the air. The AX.25 packet
has bit-stuffing added, and is the converted, still in the TNC, to
audio tones which are sent, along with the PTT signal (although
some TNC->Radio connections use VOX) to the Radio which
contains the actual modulator, transmitter, amplifier and
connection to the antenna. Lynn (D) - KJ4ERJ - Author of APRSISCE

ICOM ID51A DPRS ON MAP
We are attempting to have all of our team members activate their ID51A GPS and then be able to track them on the map.
As yet we cannot get the position reports to show up on the map, we have tried both the A and G message options. Anybody try this and if so, how did you get it to work? Any help appreciated! AL M KF5SMH

Re: Rd transmission from my transceiver
Rob Giuliano
These are a few things that would prevent transmission:
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
1. TNC interface mode APRS clients work best when the TNC is in KISS mode. If the clent expects KISS, but the TNC is not in KISS no TX NOTE: typically no RX in this state. 2. Squelch control The TNC controls the actual TX when the frequency is clear. That is determined by squelch control. Most work best using an algorithm that looks for the packet tones. Open radio squelch, and on the TNC use CD Tones (or comething like that). Here the TNC shows TX, but radio will not activate PTT. 3. Wiring from TNC to radio. a) PTT wiring incorrect Here the TNC shows TX, but radio will not activate PTT. b) Audio wiring incorrect Here Radio TX indicated, but no TX audio

Re: Rd transmission from my transceiver
Lynn Deffenbaugh
Read http://aprsisce.wikidot.com/doc:transmitting and check what all it says there. As well as viewing and enabling both the Transmit trace log and Port(<YourPortName>). And we will be needing to know what TNC, radio, and port type you have configured in APRSISCE/32 to go further with the diagnosing. Lynn (D) - KJ4ERJ - Author of APRSISCE for Windows Mobile and Win32

When I hit transmit my callsign pops up in the vertical log but nothing happens with the tnc and it's radio. No rf.

Re: Rd transmission from my transceiver

When APRSISCE/32 transmits, of course! Open and enable the Transmit trace log and then hit the Transmit menu option. Maybe also read: http://aprsisce.wikidot.com/doc:transmitting Lynn (D) - KJ4ERJ - Author of APRSISCE
