Subject: RE: [aprssig] Tiny Tracker III loading?
Bob,
Except for the path issue, the symptoms you describe could also be caused
by RF problems into the TinyTrak. Neither version II or III have much RF
immunity. I have seen EXACTLY those symptoms with mine, including the
stretched TXD, which is a good reason to put it where the TX LED is
visible. There are any number of fixes, such as a metal case and/or better
shielding and chokes. All of which just underlines your advice to stop,
look and sometimes listen!

I have borrowed a Dallas 1-wire in the past for testing. As of a week or
two ago I now own that unit, but I haven't hooked it up yet.
Could it be that the AAG-supplied and Dallas-supplied RJ-11 cables were
crimped differently? That's what I would expect. Some RJ cables line up
pin 1 with pin 1, some flip one end.

A very sweet use of the existing technology Wes...
Xastir should center the map and bring up a popup, but I don't think it
issues any voice or audio.

Since proportional beaconing/pathing cannot be accomplished on the UIDIGI
with the BeaconOffset not working properly, you only have 3 BeaconText
settings that can be utilized inclusively of themselves to be proportional.
Right now we have Beacon1Text set to fire at Beacon1Interval of 10 minutes
using a local path or no path. Then we have Beacon2Text set to fire at
Beacon2Interval of 29 minutes using a one hop path so it does not get
bunched with Beacon1Text.
Now it seems to me that I would want to use Beacon3Text for the local info
initiative rather than spamming my neighbors 2 hops away at a 59 minute rate
to avoid colliding with the 10 and 29 minute interval of the previous 2
beacons. Actually, it only makes sense to end Beacon3Text and use it for
something more practical and useful for the local area rather than spamming
the neighbors every hour.
However, you are not going to get UIDIGI to fill the time slot so it will
need to be hard coded with something like 000000 as shown below:
Beacon3Text = ;146.940- *000000zDDMM.hhN/DDDMM.hhWrPHG7660-600 PL100 Net
Thur 730PM
Beacon3Path = <== nothing required for local path unless you want LOCAL
to appear in the path
Beacon3Interval = 600

Yes, and to setup those 3 Beacons by REMOTE access (while the TNC is still
up on the mountaintop), or local access, the sysop's command syntax could
be:
BT 1 !3424.30NS08648.02W#PHG5670/W3,ALn Wilson Mtn A=001360
BDL 1 ;NONE
BE 1 600 ;10 minutes
BT 2 !3424.30NS08648.02W#PHG5670/W3,ALn Wilson Mtn A=001360
BDL 2 WIDE2-1
BE 2 1740 ;29 minutes
BT 3 ;146.760- *111111zDDMM.hhN/DDDMM.hhWrPHG7660-600 PL100 Net Thur730PM
BDL 3 ;NONE
BE 3 600 ;10 minutes
(Sysop command syntax abbreviations as shown in the UIDIGIE.DOC file that
comes within the UIDIGI software's.zip file)
