Re: VARA in Dec2023 on a Pi
you need to install winlink manually?
vara download location changed fyi winlink now hosts the binary package?
vara and all winlink can be downloaded with this one liner?
wget -r -A "*.zip" 'https://downloads.winlink.org/VARA%20Products/'

If you're using a Digirig and your radio doesn't use CAT (like the FT-2980 for example) you need to uncomment the appropriate line that uses RTS signalling for PTT.?
For the Signalink, yes no PTT setting is required since it has an internal VOX circuit which triggers PTT automatically whenever it detects outgoing audio.
I¡¯m not sure what you¡¯re trying to do??
direwolf at the most simple is just setting the proper sound card (you listed #3)?
and it should start decoding ax25 right away when launched?
as for PTT you uncomment the line in config to match how your PTT works - if using a digirig or signal link - you just send it (don¡¯t mess with cm108 configs) to the serial port and the hardware handles the PTT?

For simplicity and time, and to be sure everything is gone, due to
the way the individual packages are installed, some from repos,
some compiled from scratch, and with all their dependencies, it's
easier to just re-image or re-install the OS. It's not the answer
you want to hear, but if you didn't install a snapshot backup
program before diving in, it's going to be your best bet, with the
least amount of effort.
For 73Linux, unless Jason and others first install a snapshot
backup program (Hey, FEATURE REQUEST!!!) run before each new app
is installed, to be able to remove it, doesn't exist. Also, you
would need to uninstall each program installed after the one you
want to remove, then re-install the ones you want to keep. IOW, if
you install programs A, B, C, D, E, then want to remove B,
programs E, D, & C would need to be removed in that order, to
safely remove B, then re-install C, D, & E. APT and YUM and
other package managers do the direct purge very well, but if you
also compile and install source code packages, they get confused,
too when you have a mix of packages and source code.
If it could be all one or the other, it would be much easier, but
this Linux, and all the authors don't play well together, nor do
the distros.

Re: Xastir not installing
it compiles and runs but there is some serious performance issue for sure?
I opened a issue on GitHub?
my test was a pi5 fully updated and the program functions but has a lot of hiccups?
|
Have set up direwolf.conf except for the channel portion.? I am very confused on this.? I have read many different examples burt nothing seems to make sence.
It seems Rasp pi info is light on this topic compared to windows.
Direwolf, Xastir? ? ft2980r, Signalink, Rasp pi 4b 8g? bookworm
Does any have an example?? I can provide info
|
Thank u for that last update.? Guess is best to just do a complete rebuild. Have to gi back to all my notes now. Since i did install on a sd card and then moved to a sata drive.. well here goes.. my days work has begun..

I want to start fresh. Too many errors. PAT
WINLINK worked great for me with Vara, one weekend.. i also did
tqsl, gridtracker, Cqrlog, wsjt.. i was so happy, i packed my go
kit, and travelled with it... necer worked again.. heheheheh..
so i wanna start Fresh. Remove PAT and all its requirements, and
just start all over again...
To remove 73Linux, you only need to remove the directory:
rm -rf ~/73Linux
This does not uninstall any apps. It only uninstalls 73Linux
itself.

Re: Can¡¯t get Xastir to install

|
Trying to install Xastir from buil a pi and it shows up on the pi as installed but it i get this "invalid desktop entry file /usr/share/applications/xastir.desktop" when i try to open it.? So i went to check to see if it needed an update and it shows its not installed.? So i try to install it again and no dice, same message same isuue.? Help!??

If you find that, let me know because I cannot get the input past about -5000, 5000. I thought I read somewhere once that it should be > -15000, 15000 once.

Re: ARDOP Transmit Hang Time
Well, I guess I am. I have ver 2.0.3.2.
I did download another version from the ARDOP website but it was a version 1.something.

setconky script mod for aarch64 support
I am working with a pi5 and 64 bit bookwork attempting to install 73Linux. The program "setconky" does not properly identify the Architecture and so it shows the x86 config files instead of the pi config files.?? Changing line 3 to read:
CPU=$(lscpu | grep Architecture | grep 'arm\|aarch64' )
seems to fix the issue.
