This is what I had to do as well. The FTM 400 takes care of the beaconing and sends received packets to the tablet. It'll even post incoming messages to the APRSISCE tablet. However you must use the F

Thanks Rob, I hope to get back in the EOC late this week or early next. I've had the sickeypoos for the past week. Fortunately not the dreaded "C". What I usually do when I'm working on the DIGI at EO

Thanks, Rob. I read that section again, just now, and remember it from my last deep dive into APRSISCE/32. That just seems too easy. I was looking for I-gate too, but I think that is done in CONFIG/ I

OK, Not really. I have until the end of March. I have been successfully running APRSISCE/32 for a while now. In my car and until my knees gave out, on foot. My question has to do with running a digi a

Hi Guys, IIRC, you want to put it in PACKET mode. I have found that my FTM 400 will output EITHER stations-heard (for plotting and scroller), OR GPS sentences, but not both. I eventually figured out t

Hi Mike, I use APRSIS32 mostly mobile. My setup consists of an ICOM IC2100 for the radio; an Argent OT3 for the TNC (I wish those were still available). I am using a serial to Bluetooth adapter to con

That should have been "know *what* you're doing", but you probably got it anyway 73, Ron +++++++++++++++

hi Lynn, As others have said, is sounds like you know doing, and clearly know more about hurricanes than I do. Here in Mi. about all we have to worry about is SNOW, and the occasional baby hurricane (

I use the ARC GIS Topo. I am often asked "how do you navigate with all the clutter?" My reply is "How can you navigate without all the information?" I'll admit, my uncle (Sam) spent a lot of time teac

Hi Guys and Gals, Many moons ago, I found and downloaded a nicely done off line version of our wiki. It is getting a bit dated now. Is there a more recent version. my use of APRSISCE/32 is mostly off

I have excellent success with the QStarz BT1000XT. With the added advantage that it is also a stand alone data tracker and uses a standard Nokia battery (removable). 73, Ron ++++++++++++++++

Hi Bob, It's just an instance of APRSIS32 running on a laptop or tablet with a screen. GPS-TNC-COMPUTER and a radio with portable power such as a battery or cig lighter plug for the car. 73, Ron (KC8S

Hi Bob, I slugged my way through the overlay thing a while back. I finally, and with the help of several kind folks here, was able to hammer it into my head. I used it several times to pre-fetch map t

Hi Bob, You are correct, there is no use for a dumb APRS tracker station at a fixed location. I am plotting those with Objects. My understanding is that SAG stands for Stragglers And Gear. Someone als

are not as hilly as your terrain Hi Bob, We don't have anything here that would qualify as a mountain, but the running gag here is that if you buy 5 acres in Barry County and iron it flat you'd get ab

hi Chris, We are in Barry County (between Kalamazoo and Grand Rapids). The event is 25 Mar. I looked you up on QRZ.com. It'd be quite a commute for you, but if you'd like to join us, contact me off li

Hi Gordon, I would be happy to converse off line. That said, I'm not ashamed to bare my soul here (as regards APRS). I have been helped many times, by something that caught my eye here as someone else

Hi Bob and All, Probably two mobiles, deaf trackers in the SAG's. Two minute beacon rate and time slotted just to be sure. At this point, it looks like Byonic's MT-AIO's. since we have those in stock.

Hi Guys 'n' Gals, I have two digi/I-gates up and running. One at the EOC (BRYEOC) running 24-7 unless the computer does an update or the IT department resets the router. When that happens, the compute

I was at the EOC the other evening for our regular 2M net and while there I was tweaking the Digi/Igate. I finally found the setting to make the "multi tracks" come up at full brightness. Now that I h
