I believe 0x1b is the "ESC" key. Control-[ also generates the same code on some keyboards, so perhaps it's a problem with fat-fingers. Greg KO6TH Lynn Deffenbaugh wrote:

Hi James, So, only partly. The modes I was referring to were "traditional" packet radio, not APRS. APRS was certainly crafted without regards to the OSI model's 7 layer Cake, but in spite of that it's

Yep. MFJ-1278T in use here. Seems a waste to run it in KISS-1200 mode, given it's huge mailbox and added 2400bps modem, but such is progress... Greg KO6TH Brian Webster via groups.io wrote:

For what it's worth, I run APRSIS32 on a Linux system under Wine, and I have not seen this behavior. The only "odd" thing is that the first start-up after boot creates a small Wine window off to the s

Thanks, Lynn. The version of "Windows" here is an older copy of OpenSuSE Linux, with APRSIS32 running under Wine. :) If this is somewhere on your possible improvements list, that's all I can ask. Agai

Hi Lynn, So I've noticed recently that I'm getting an occasional Bulletin message sent out by someone (KM6HBH) who's running a net a little ways away. Totally legit, nice to know; not complaining abou

If you have a passcode for other APRS software to access (send to) the APRS-IS, it is the same for APRSISCE/32. Greg KO6TH Steve wrote:

Hi Mark, By some miracle, my iPAQ still fires up. The version of APRSISCE on it is dated 2013/10.29 15:15. That might not be the latest that will run on it, but it's at least one that does. To your ot

Hi Mark, I doubt any version of the APRSISCE software would run on this model. I ran it many years ago on an iPaq HW6945, but it used the Windows Mobile 5 operating system, which I think was the first

Hi Lynn, So, to clarify, this only relates to the internally-managed tile storage, and is independent of where those tiles come from. Right? I do use different map data sources, for different kinds of

It might be easier to get the Android version to run on a Pi. Both ARM, and both Linux. Just missing the Android API. Has anyone written such for the Pi? This looks promising... https://magpi.raspberr

What Fred is talking about is the satellite pass prediction service that Lynn has running. Send an APRS message by any method (Internet is probably best) to the satellite name, and you'll get a reply

Hi Pat, I have one of the Acurite stations (don't recall which model). I had good luck with the package "weewx" for interfacing it with the computer. My computer runs Linux, but the package is written

Hi Rob, Digging deep into the mental memory banks, probably beyond what they contain (i.e., this is a guess!). I seem to recall the original Unix system console interface wasn't on a serial port, but

Hi Rob, It sounds like the Wine team is trying to be annoyance-for-annoyance compatible with Windows :(. I'm on Wine 1.8.6 on an old OpenSuSE LEAP 42.1 system, and the upgrade to the latest went witho

Actually, this is on my home system. I'm running Linux on it, with 4 Desktops. One is dedicated to APRSIS32, full-screen (such as a 22" inch display is these days). The others are for various other th

Sounds good, Mark. There are lots of tradeoffs and customization opportunities, depending on one's circumstances. Greg KO6TH KE6BB via groups.io wrote:

Sure. But bottom line, using two instances only gives a cosmetic separation of the screen's data, no effect on the traffic or functionality. That's what I was thinking. One instance is less CPU and RA

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). Is
