I've been seeing the same thing with ANSRVR HOTG notifications on both of my APRSIS32 instances AND my APRSISMO/TestHost instance on my Android phone.?? I'm considering merging all N:xxxxx messages into a single chat box, but I haven't worked out a way to support easily doing a direct reply to the source of one of those announcements.

But yes, having a Clear / Clear xxxx Notifications would be a good first step!? Unfortunately, dynamic menu options aren't the easiest things in the world to implement in Win32.?? But the "bother factor" is definitely getting to the point where I'll have to implement something that's better than "Click - Escape - Rinse and Repeat".?? And I really don't like the "close the client" option that I do sometimes resort to.

As the Thursday HOTG net has gained in popularity, we've uncovered some interesting things in the APRS world, including some broken IGate implementations.

I think I'll be making an update to the ANSRVR to ignore redundant CQ messages and only process the first one.?? That way any messaging station that sends to a group, but doesn't receive back the ack, won't flood the current members with redundant messages for each of their retries.?? ANSRVR knows that it has already sent out that message, and will still ack the retry, but it won't send them out redundantly.

Hopefully I'll get that done before next Thursday's net ramps up!

If someone checked in to the HOTG ANSRVR group today, you're likely to see LOTS of subsequent stations, both remote RF and APRS-IS stations, show up in your scroller.?? Especially if the IGate copies digipeated packets back.?? I like to run with Configure / Scroller / Show IGate/Digi which gives you a second column showing the station you directly copied the packet from as well as the source callsign of the packet itself.

IIRC, the # in the scroller indicates that it was a 3rd party packet and you definitely show more than a few of those.

Re: APRSIS reinstall issues..

Alrighty - All is good now.? Only thing I did differently was edited the XML for the development version and everything is up and runny perfectly so far.? So, something int he developer version worked.? Closed cased.??

Appreciate the help Rob.? Have a great upcoming weekend everyone

Re: APRSIS reinstall issues..

wheelz
 

Rob, more so curious about these which I cannot find in the wiki.? ?


Re: APRSIS reinstall issues..

 

Please explain what you feel are "weird issues"?
?? The wiki has info on the scroller elements (colors and symbols):
# - A pound sign after the callsign indicates that the packet was received from RF inside a 3rd party packet
?? @ - An at sign after the callsign indicates that the packet was digipeated by your station

Second.? The simply(KISS) type port assume the TNC is already in KISS mode, so there are no "functional" open/close statement.
Since you appear to be receiving (and DIGI'ing) packets from RF, I don't see why you are questioning the configuration.

Re: APRSIS reinstall issues..

Hmm still getting some weird issues:??

First is the scroller is showing this:?
?

Secondly, I think XML "open/close" commands for the argent tracker 3 are incorrect:?

And shoot, I didnt save a copy of the XML when things were running smoothly either.? Crap?

~Bryan?


Re: APRSIS reinstall issues..

wheelz
 

Morning Rob,? ?

Could you fine folks further define the "APRSIS port" and "PORT" 's different sections:? I assume in "PORT , APRSIS" ; "I" and "O" is packets coming "IN" and "OUT" and "RCV" and "XMT" is how many packets have been TX'ed and RX'ed in an hours' time correct?? How about the different values such as; "t/p", "t/o", "t/i"? etc...??



Still trying to troubleshoot the Igate/Digis sudden diminishment of packets sent to APRS IS in during the last four days.? All of a sudden it stopped effectively packeting traffic yet the logs appear to indicate successful traffic sent to IS.?



-AND-


I understand the measure of successful dig'ing and Igate'ing is NOT defined by what "information" is shown on APRS IS traffic sites but a determined in partial, to what the LOGS SHOW.? ?

Thoughts??

You cannot double click the EXE file from within.

Second:
Microsoft has placed many restrictions on folders outside your user folder.? This is especially true of the Programs Files and Programs Files x86 folders.?
It is best to place pre Windows 7 applications (Win32 applications that still require INI files) in a folder under the base structure.
You may have to change permissions on the folder as well.

APRSIS reinstall issues..

wheelz
 

Hey everyone,?

Had to re installs APRSIS32 this evening due to it having become unresponsive.? I downloaded the zip, unzipped and selected the exe and after inputting the required information (call, passkey etc.) and select "ok", the loading scroll just sits there and 'hiccups'...? The program had become unresponsive within the last several days.? Task manager repeatedly says the program is not responding.? It's a new issue for me with the program.??

After terminating the program within task manager, I go through the process again and same thing.? ?The computer is windows 10 and I confirmed the program is allowed through the antivirus software.

Re: Distinquish between Heard By, Hearing, Packet

HeardBy: the path component that is first used in a parsed packet.? This would be the station (or alias) that likely hears the station direct.? If no components are used, then the iGate likely copied the station direct.

Hearing: all stations whose packets have been heard by the station you're looking at.?? This may include digipeated packets, I'm not sure without looking at the source.

Packet: the path of the most recent packet copied from that station.

PS.?? When looking at some of these pop-up text dialogs, a Control-C (for Copy) will put the text into the clipboard instead of capturing an image of the window.? Control-C when a map has focus will copy the image into the clipboard.

Re: Bluetooth GPS Receivers

 

You don't say how you were trying to connect the Bluetooth GPS.
What did you try as a connection type with the Bluetooth GPS?
I don't have the tablet, and I know some tablets are difficult to work with for GPS.

On my Windows Laptop, I was able to connect using Menu >Configure >Ports >NMEA and choose Bluetooth and my Bluetooth GPS device was listed.
When I've tried to connect through a virtual serial port, it always fails.
