Instruction review
|
Good afternoon. You may have seen the posts from Glen, KB0RPJ. Our ARES group was exercising APRS group messaging during our Blizzard Warning.? I am working on an instructional document for APRS including:
Are there features beyond these 3 to include?
?
I am not being exhaustive (such as instructions for send/receiving WINLINK via APRS). Just trying to get operators to expand their APRS functionality & use.
?
I would be interested in reviews of the attachment for accuracy & clarity.?
?
Thank you.

consider use of bulletins Also, not just about messaging, but objects of interest.?
Check on the QRU Server functionality for such objects, it makes them available, but not always transmitting unless requested. ---- 73s Adam Mahnke KC2ANT

开云体育You could put objects up and using 32 objects can also be areas. So say you have a large part of the area under evac or do not enter, you can make the object on the screen and path it out then convert it to a multi line object which will show
on clients and can be marked as do not enter ect.?
Single point objects can also be useful. Shelters points. Gas stations still with power etc.?

Thank you all.? I will repost when it is finalized.

I didn't clarify, but this is not specific to APRS-IS32; many of the users I am trying to reach would be using phone apps.? I just felt there was a good knowledge base here. In fact, I still use UI-View32 at home & mobile, primarily.
?
I do use objects pretty regularly.? In our Blizzard event, I posted several objects for stations reporting snow totals who were not on APRS to create a bigger picture.? I also use Overlays for public service events on my own map. Brian, KC0BS, a regional APRS guru wrote a scripted spreadsheet where it is easy to enter position data for overlay objects which then creates the correct overlay file.
?
I've never drawn areas yet - will have to look into that.
?
Also haven't done bulletins; I'm mostly interested in communicating among our ARES group using APRS.
?
Thanks for your comments.

Here's the wiki page for multi-line objects. I was trying to find my example that I created, but looking at the history, that was 2011 or 2012 when I was creating the documentation. Hmm, found a clue?from when I was playing with multi-line objects, back on Sept 30, 2016. I spent a bit of time playing with multi-line objects when writing the wiki page, and then when playing with demo object I was making in 2016.
