Cool piece of kit. I don't know if i need it but i want it. 😊

@TheAtomicZombie10 8 месяцев назад

An all-in-one digipeter is pretty cool

@PrebleStreetRecords 8 месяцев назад

Fantastic! I've been kicking around some projects using the Opentracker+ or one of the Byonics offerings, but this is everything I need in a single, cheaper package.

@texasprepperprojects 8 месяцев назад

Finally someone stuck a baofung heart into a ep32. Now you can have a self contained, mountain top, solar digipeater. this beats the snot out of LORA. 2 watts on VHF? yup.

What are the options for data privacy when using APRS?

@martinsmith2550 27 дней назад

Just set mine up great bit of kit. If possible could you do a quick vid on how you cut the speaker wire please.

@MartinHiggs84 26 дней назад

Thanks Mat, Like this one 😊 - I thought straight away powering from the car/van and power on/off being from ignition could be a possibility with small external antenna for gps & vhf.

How clean is the transmission? Spurious emissions?

@rayveritas2361 5 месяцев назад

I saw a mage on the OpenRTX page that said there are two revisions of the t-twr. 2.0 and 2.1. 2.0 apparently doesn’t have an audio out to the MCU to decode packets from RF. I haven’t had any luck getting my t-twr plus v2.0 to decode APRS from RF. It decodes from APRS-IS.

@k9-ham Месяц назад

This is great. Any idea how to pair Bluetooth?

@seanfichera 5 месяцев назад

I just got one of these. It doesn't decode the APRS packets received over RF. Transmit on High Power causes it to shut down.

@vica153 2 месяца назад

Is there an Igate that works with both LORA and 'classic' APRS packets?

@ManuelLausmann-Funktechnik 8 месяцев назад

Do you have problems with 2W operation on high in tracker mode? If your device crashes, there is a small hardware mod for that. 😉You didn't show the radio function with subsequent APRS transmission.

@ddloehr 3 месяца назад

I just ordered two boards and I am looking forward to getting this set up. Do you have a link to more information about your mod or about the build in general? Also, is it possible for a tracker to connect over bluetooth to APRS droid so I can see other tracker locations while on the go?

@RussellThomas 4 месяца назад

How did you turn off or cut audio to the speaker?

Remember kids, this requires a license!

Is there any way of connecting an external wifi antenna? I want to put together a 439 MHz digipeater iGate powered by solar in my garden, but I think it will be to far away from a good wifi connection

@SpookieNZL 7 месяцев назад

Hi Again, What Volume Setting do I use as I’m wanting to Disable the On Board Speaker Plug. As does this affect the receiving APRS Signals? What settings do you use for Digipeater? Thanks

@kevinjones2529 3 месяца назад

Could I use this in a mesh

@SpookieNZL 7 месяцев назад

Hi, I really enjoy your Full in Depth Videos. Do you have the link or where to get the 3D Prints for this? Thanks

@TechMindsOfficial 7 месяцев назад

Plenty available online, a quick google search came with this one but I havnt tested it yet: github.com/k5jae/LILYGO-T-TWR-Plus-case

@primalucephoto 5 месяцев назад

Just purchased this. Is it normal for the device to reboot every few minutes?

@texasprepperprojects 8 месяцев назад

Does it include the battery? It's an 18650. Any idea on power draw? this is the perfect mate for a solar panel and field use!

@Stefaon 8 месяцев назад

No battery, this is a 21700

@don_n5skt 8 месяцев назад

@@Stefaon I now have them, there is a spring in the package and I am using the spring to use my 18650s with the radios. But I have 21700 on order.

@moormoor4281 8 месяцев назад

449.000mhz has APRS !?

@Stefaon 8 месяцев назад

Hello ! I don't understand how the wifi setup is supposed to work, it's seems to be impossible to acces the wifi network for setting the TWR, I try two computer and my phone. Did somebody understand how to did it ?

@Stefaon 8 месяцев назад

PS : My wifi network use 18 caracteres so I can't setting it into the menu via the TWR, it only take 14.

@TechMindsOfficial 8 месяцев назад

Did you try to disable the connection to router and just enable to the access point mode?

@Stefaon 8 месяцев назад

@@TechMindsOfficial I find a way to set the wifi. I set my phone in "hotspot" mode, and I set the parameter of this hotspot with the original name and password of the application (APRSTH and the password). So I was able to connect the TWR with his new wifi adress (you can see it on the phone) from my phone and set my home router wifi parameter via the web interface. There is a video from HS5TQA about this method : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e9tvUChsF4U.htmlsi=-npMdIBXoIqhulI8

@danboggiano4314 5 месяцев назад

This thing doesn’t work. It transmits packets via RF and internet but never decodes packets nor does the digi work. This is using firmware version .3 and hardware version of the T TWR Plus 2.0. How much of this worked for you when you first set it up? If it all worked, have you updated it since and does it still work?

@chrisarmstrong2721 8 месяцев назад

How much are these? im a fellow Brit now living overseas in Singapore and id like to set up a vehicle tracking network with these on the free and open bands such as 915mhz. However i need to know if i can also use these same devices to transmit meshtastic messages so i kind of develop a 2 for one network. Thanks in advance and i also founded a free platform called The Metaverse Chase Reality if anyone is interested :) Thanks again, Christopher
