Subject: Re: D-Star IC-2200H Connection



I have been studying the GPS sentence formatters that come from my 
IC-2200H when connected to a GPS.  There are 25 possible 
combinations, but combination number 3, RMC or GPRMC seems to be the 
most useful for APRS.

Is there a way for PEPRO to monitor one of my COMM Ports (connection 
data is listed below) and convert the GPRMC formatted sentence into 
data my APRS software (UI-View 32) could understand?

The following is a sentence from my radio transmitted a short while 
ago.

$GPRMC,070838,A,3331.2438,N,10152.3132,W,20.6,270.2,220205,7.7,E,A*32

Hi

Uiview understands GPRMC sentences (AGWTRacker not Yet!!!).
So you will have no problem.
This is what alinco sends too.

 Uiview understands GPRMC sentences

If UI-View understands GPRMC sentences, then I don't
understand UI-View.  I want to track a D-Star station
that is beaconing its position with GPRMC strings.  I
want there to be an icon with a callsign next to it. 
When I click on the icon I want to see the position,
time, beacon comment, status text, name, effective
digi path and frame.

Here is what I can do right now with UI-View and
D-Star.  I can go to the "GPS Setting" under the
"Setup" menu.  I can configure it as 9600 baud rate,
com-port 2, and enable show GPS cross-hairs.  This
will place a cross-hair on my map in UI-View.

So I can drive around town in my car with my D-Star
radio beaconing.  At home my other D-Star radio is
receiving.  My UI-View is plotting a cross-hair on my
screen.

But others in the APRS world can't see the cross-hairs
(it doesn't get digipeated).  And there is no
information on my screen about the speed or bearing. 
There is no identification of what the cross-hairs represent.

I think I see what you are trying to do. You almost have it.


In UI-View, goto station setup. Under beacon interval, beside mobile enter 2 and 1. Under GPS Symbol, select the symbol. That w

ay. UI-View will transmit that symbol with the position every 2 minutes or more often if the position changes mo
re than 1 mile (or km).

Let us know if it works.

When reading from a GPS Ui-View only puts out cross hairs on the map as a indication of your location.  

For you to receive others APRS station or be picked up by other APRS stations you need to be on 144.390 Mhz which is the US nat

ional APRS frequency.

For information on Ui-View I suggest the group at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ui-view/   

You can get plenty of help there with UiView

Hi

Does the Icom transmits a packet with the GPRSMC sentence??
If yes then any user with UIVIEW should See your station .
Of course you will not have any status text etc. Just the Position and your callsign.

If you use the in car UIVIEW to send beacons do what VE2AEY said. You can avoid the in car PC using the ICOM with mUSB TNT. MUS

B TNT will send the position packets etc.

I am planning to use a in CAR PC with a small VGA Touch Screen 7'' and AGWTracker. I am still thinking about it, when ready I w

ill publish fotos and how to.

Subject: RE: D-Star IC-2200H Connection


Thank you Jean-Marie.  I just did that and it does
seem to be working.

The limitation here is that it will only be effective
for my station.  If there are other D-Star users in
the area then their GPS beacons would screw up my
position.

Look at the format of this GPRMC sentence:

$GPRMC,061836,A,3331.4276,N,10152.5991,W,0.0,277.8,220205,7.8,E,A*07
KC5ZRQ  ,

I would like a feature in PEPRO that would convert
that sentence into an APRS formatted sentence.  Notice
that it is a standard RMC sentence format that places
my callsign at the end.  That callsign can be 8
characters long.  Example, KC5ZRQ15.


 In UI-View, goto station setup. Under beacon
 interval, beside mobile enter 2 and 1. Under GPS
 Symbol, select the symbol. That way. UI-View will
 transmit that symbol with the position every 2
 minutes or more often if the position changes more
 than 1 mile (or km).
 
 Let us know if it works.

Then what happens when the guy across town gets D-Star
and transmits his GPS beacon on the same frequency as
I am?

Hi John

I really don't know how the 2200 works.
Could you explain it?
What exactly does with the GPS??
Does it transmits the gps sentences as packet frames or it uses a special format?? If it trasmits a frame, the frame can be rec

eived from other packet stations without 2200?? If this is a Packet formatted frame then contains a fromCall (wh
ich is
yours) and ToCall which should be something like Apxxxx(APRS etc)
