Fairly sure that I'm formatting packets correctly from APRSIS32. Not looking for deep dive help necessarily, but curious if others know whether this is possible (and/or with earlier radios in the FTM family).

I vaguely recall reading about that, somewhat curious if others have found a clever way around this.?

If I recall correctly Yeasu doesn't allow access to the TNC for transmit from APRSISCE.

Most likely the testhost.apk?
that is the one that I and an unknown number of other people are currently running.

This is amazing news.
For informational purposes only, APRSISDR became APRSISMO, and the Testhost link is the Dev Version of APRSISMO and is the most recent version of that.
Lynn was working toward a cross platform mobile version, I know it works on Android, but I'm not sure about others.

I have not?uploaded a collection of 6 additional folders of source code.? I am not sure if what I have uploaded is the correct source code.? If someone looks and thinks that what is uploaded is incorrect, let me know, and I can look further into uploading more source code.
Paul
I have just opensourced?the following software: APRSISCE (APRSIS32) APRSISMO APRSISDR
My father's wishes were to do this upon his passing.? He did not want any of his software to go commercial use, so I have added a GPL license to the source code.? I have published on the APRS Foundation github which will ensure a very long life to the administration of the access to the source code.? I plan to continue to act as keeper of the source code, so please reach out to me if you are wanting to work on the software, but it is here for you to work on in keeping with the license.

This software was brought to you by the letters L and P and the number 42.

Re: HF APRS Time Lapse Video -- Timeout Setting?

Re: HF APRS Time Lapse Video -- Timeout Setting?
I can find no instance of Lynn mentioning an upper limit to the values. One message notes that someone used 1440 as the stations.maxage which is 24 hours.
Lynn noted many times that setting the value to zero would equate?to never timing out, so the upper value limit would be 0, which equates to infinity.
Thanks for the update Glen. Didn't realize the .safe file had to be edited as well.
Tony, Notice how Glen's and Mine are different times? I made some adjustments to mine for reasons that I don't remember right now, but if you update those numbers to larger minutes it should resolve what you're looking for. That being said, I vaguely remember there being an upper limit to those, but I can't remember what it is right now.?
