Billy ... you did not disappoint Sir! A functioning APRS client. Can't wait until we play with JNOS. That WAS the BBS software of the day when I first played with packet radio. Thanks again! 73 - KF6IF
Thank you for all of your videos. I'm really looking fwd to getting going with packet. I was never able to before it faded away. So very enthusiastic this time.
Hi, I'm looking all over the net for Information on how to set up a BBS System. Every info I found is about getting into a System but not setting up one. Can you please make a Video about it.. Thank you in advance 73 Tom
Thanks for another great video! I'm getting lots of APRS-IS reports, yay! But no radio reports from 144.390 MHz. Also I get this error message in the events window: "4/17/2024 10:30:29 PM Could not send KK7QPA-10>APIN21,WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1:!3223.30N/11104.88WyHome APRS Test to TNC. Error: The write timed out." My location does show up on the APRS.FI map!
Glad to hear you have the APRS-IS side working. If this error is showing up in Pinpoint, does your direwolf window show any indication that Pinpoint tried to connect to it? And what are you using for the "hostname" for the Network Kiss TNC setting? One more thing to check is to make sure your audio devices/ptt port have not changed for direwolf. Direwolf may revel something useful.
@@ModernHam Direwolf works great, pulls in radio messages and displays in green/blue. No error messages in Direwolf from Pinpoint. Host name is 127.0.0.1 and port 8001. When I run Pinpoint it pulls in IS positions, but not radio positions from Direwolf. There seems to be no communication between Pinpoint and Direwolf. Thanks for your help!
This is very strange. I assume direwolf is running on the same system as pinpoint if you are using 127.0.0.1. When you Press Tools -> Connect TNC, does it show "TNC Connected" at the bottom.
