AX.25 Port Configuration for Pat WInlink on Pi Zero


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý


Hey all,

I followed Jason's "Pi Zero Project" videos to build a Pi Zero headless setup. A great help for a newcomer to digital modes! No problems with initial install of AX.25 or Pat. All command responses followed the video exactly.

After shutting the Pi down and starting up the next day, I have an error with AX.25 port configuration.

pi@pizero:~ $ pat connect ax25:///WA6LIE-10
2022/02/10 21:33:10 Connecting to WA6LIE-10 (ax25)...
2022/02/10 21:33:10 Unable to establish connection to remote: No AX.25 ports configured

My "axports" file shows one entry, equal to the output from:

"echo "wl2k $CALL 1200 255 7 Winlink" | sudo tee -a /etc/ax25/axports"

Output of "rfkill list"

pi@pizero:~ $ rfkill list
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
?? ?Soft blocked: no
?? ?Hard blocked: no
1: hci0: Bluetooth
???
Soft blocked: no
?? ?Hard blocked: no
I'm sure it's a step or connection I missed. Has anyone seen this before? Thanks in advance!

Luke
