If you already have WinAPRS, simply look in the /WinAPRS/Docs
folder for the .html documentation. Alternatively, if you have WinAPRS
running, click on "Help" and then "Open help in Web browser" for the same
information.

Subject: APRS Client Capabilities Chart (APRS-CCC?)
From: Curt Mills <hacker@tc.fluke.com>

I know I'm going to take a beating for this, but then again, what do
I care? ;-)
I was thinking how nice it would be to have a table of clients vs.
capabilities (you know, like that table we all used to decide what
GPS to buy...), to see what areas need to be improved in each
client, or to decide which clients to play with first.
Here's my first attempt:
APRS Clients Capabilities Chart:
--------------------------------
http://www.eskimo.com/~archer/aprs_capabilities.html
Note: I didn't try to cover all of the clients or main features yet. I
don't run most of the clients, so I need experts for each program to help
figure out the proper contents. Please send me updates!
This is very much slanted towards the clients I know best. Help me update
the chart to cover all of the clients fairly. I'll do my best to stay
objective.
Perhaps someone can go through the spec and come up with a line item for
each major item in the spec?
Also: Could this serve as the start of a spec-compliance audit?
Something to help all of the clients progress towards
spec-compliance and interoperability?

Some do for me, some don't. About 50/50.

Chris, which one do you want? I can email the WinAPRS doc right
off my hard drive if you like. Or the APRSdos for that matter.

Subject: TM-D700A Problems...
From: Jim Duncan <jdbandman@earthlink.net>

X-Message-Number: 41
Has anyone run into a problem with the D-700 getting stuck in the
process of initializing the TNC?
My D700 was doing VERY bizarre things yesterday and it never gets past
the initializing message on the screen. It was also displaying some
sort of weird screen saver of a car driving down a highway and flashing
the screen backlight and reverse screen mode....
I tried both the soft reset (from menu options) and the push-button on
the main unit.... No success...
Does anyone have a better idea on how to get the TNC to completely reset
to factory defaults?
I suspect that I caused the problem by trying to change over to Packet
Mode too quickly from APRS mode....

Jim, I found that I could avoid that lockup situation by sending reset to
the tnc before disconnecting my PDA or laptop. It will not flush the rig
settings but will clear the tnc so it does not lockup.

Thanks, Bill. I went to the site, found the link to Brent's APRS+
home page, and from there to the page I had seen before but couldn't
remember where -- http://www.qsl.net/ve5dgd/aprs/html/Site_Welcome.html
Between the two sites, I'm sure I can find the answers I look for.
