Morning Chris: Was in a "heavy" QSO just now with Clay, W0LED-2, and something happened that was alittle weird. I was typing in a new message and Send was disabled momentarily. I hit the backspace a

Just found this group a day or so ago. I am a fairly new ham (late last fall)but have been active on VHF APRS (WX station KB1TCE-1) and packet. I'm just starting to get my feet wet with HF and am inte

Previous attempts to use the PSK modes for APRS using an add-on that the late Roger Barker G4IDE wrote for UI_View have been disappointing as no error checking or AFC was used in the original add-on.

Morning Chris: Looks like you sent me a msg and got an ack back from me about an hour ago (0938z). Was just about to start the first coffee pot of the day! Maybe my msg to get over there before I hea

Chris: I noticed when connecting to my Igate with Messenger, the server is reported (after qAC) as the sending callsign, in this case my Messenger callsign, KD4MOJ-6. Should be qAC,KD4MOJ-9 (server).

Hello to all, I'm wondering if what I am seeing on APRS.fi is normal. My messages go through, but my beacons are reported like this: 2010-02-22 13:42:13 UTC: WB2LMV-1>APSK63,qAS,KJ4ERJ-15: 4145.20N

I have a lash-up of APRS Messenger with my FT-817 on 30m. I am receiving beacons from OZ1BZJ. My own beacons are getting to the APRS network via the internet. Other than by disconecting from the APRS

I've temporarily changed my default sound card so I could play with APRS Messenger using my K3 and 40W. (Antenna is an MFJ magnetic loop.) I kept the internet connection switched off as it was more in

Hi One thing i would like to control before looking in to setting up 24/7 unmanned Igate operation are the TX rate. So here thinking about the Beacon. I would like to be able to set the Becon rate t

Recent discussion about beacon times has reminded me that it is possible to set the program up as a receive only igate without transmitting. Today Ross, G6GVI is running his Icom IC-735 transceiver i

I had a request from Anatol, DL8RCB-10 seeking permission to tell Russian radio amateurs about the program. Of course I said yes (using Google Translate). Anatol has posted details on CQHAM.RU: http:

Hi Chris   Thanks again for the answer and the great wor.     Great that you will look at the beacon rate setting, that will be pretty cool to have that option. I would not like to tak

I've fixed the bug in the latest version so it will work correctly when HF only is selected. It's probably best to upload the new version even if the "old" v2.28 worked OK. Thanks for the reports so

Ross G6GVI has emailed me with some feedback: I've just tried the TCP/IP link with RadioMobile, and it works! In the RM APRS menu, I set the port to 8063, whereupon Messenger popped up a "TCP/IP con

I've uploaded v2.29 to the Files section. I've added more sound card options as some radio amateurs using SDR radios have many sound card and devices on their PC's. There is a revised shutdown routi

Hi, I've just uploaded version 2.28 to the Files section. I'm not releasing it on the website just yet as I cannot completely test the multiple soundcard option. I've added most of the features rece

Following feedback by Ross G6GVI about the VHF packets only going to the TCP/IP port when the igate was selected I've fixed that problem. I've also added the port number to the TCP/IP message box and
