Locked Sticky Welcome!!
Welcome! This group is primarily for discussing my scripts and how to configure them for different setups. However, all Raspberry Pi conversation is encouraged. Please be respectful at ALL TIMES. Let's try to help one another out without demeaning anyone. I will jump in and answer as many questions as I can but may not be able to respond to everyone. It is near impossible for me to help setup a radio that I don't own and have no experience with. By building community, others with similar setups may be able to offer a helping hand. This is the purpose of community.

Sticky Fix for Conky background on Pi (Wayland)
From this post - /g/KM4ACK-Pi/message/13625 credit - Robert Nazro These changes should be made in the .conkyrc file found in your home directory. Note the "." in front of the file name. This indicates that it is a hidden file. OK changing the gap-y =10 to: gap_y = 50, moved the conky box down below the task bar. That change along with: own_window = true, own_window_type = 'normal', own_window_transparent = false, own_window_hints = 'undecorated,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager,below', own_window_colour = '#000000', own_window_argb_visual = true, own_window_argb_value = 0, Note: I edited the last value to 0 instead of his recommended 15. -- 73, de KM4ACK YouTube | Tip Jar Twitter | Store Patreon

Modifying weather.txt 3
Good morning, I am trying to set up the weather.txt so that I can select areas in Canada. By default, Pat only has US locations. I have found the weather.txt file and added the information to get the weather where I live but in the menu selection it still shows LAS VEGAS where I put in the city where I live. Suggestions on how to fix this? Is there another file that I need to modify? TIA 73 Chris - VE6TNO

WINE 64 Bit a "No-Go?" 2

Building a Pi with pat winlink and hotspot 2
Mostly, I need pat winlink, and hotspot capability. But other programs might be needed to like flrig, ardop, and other related programs, so the question is: Is the latest (bookworm) ok, or do I need to go with legacy (bullseye) ?

ROTCTLD in hamlib having issues
I am trying to get ROTCTLD to connect my Rotor and I keep getting failures. I checked and made sure that the rotor was connected as: /dev/ttyUSB0 The GETHUB for the AntRunner Rotor just had the command : rotctld -vvvvv -m 2401 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 The rotor works with hamlib on my windows laptop and with Gpredict on the lap, as well. I'm sure that i am missing something simple. The rotor is listed in hamlib as 2401 BG5DIW GRBLTRK via Serial 20220515.0 Beta ROT_MODEL_GRBLTRK_SER 2402 BG5DIW GRBLTRK via Net 20220515.0 Beta ROT_MODEL_GRBLTRK_NET Any help is greatly appreciated.

Raspberry pi op sys version 10
So, it has been awhile since I did anything with a raspberry pi, but now I have a need. So, for 73 Linux, what op sys version should I use? Or rather what version I should stay away from? Jerry WF5W

VARAFM with Yaesu FTM500 video question 7
Trying to set up CAT controlled radio with VARA fm in Linux Mint. Do I use CAT setting in VARA or Comm? It seems to be doing dual duty on with FLrig. Tried to disable FLrig (RIG control) in pat config but then PAT doesn't read frequency of radio nor give me a green freq indication in channel setup. I also note after setting up comm ports properly that the transmit is picking up audio of my laptops internal mic instead of from VARA through my rigirig. I switched setting to Intel PCH and it works as it should. Something is switched up in WINE I believe. KM6QAQ Sent from AOL on Android

VARA FM issue for CAT rigs
Jason, If I set up PTT for CAT 9600 8 N 1 RTS my Kenwood TS-2000 with Digirig goes into transmit when I close that window. I get it to stop transmitting by clicking TUNE in sound card. I hear one tone beep on an external HT. Subsequent clicks yield proper red light indication for transmit on rig but background noise from my laptops internal mic. There is a software glitch that is doing this. I did your WINE com port 10 dos devices fix. I note that within LM Sound the USB ports don't show so I've been adjusting audio levels in Alsamixer. Receive audio seems fine. It's just transmit our digirig out that is messing up. KM6QAQ

Direwolf/YAAC 2
I’m setting up APRS on my laptop running Linux mint set up with 73 Linux. I’m using Direwolf and YAAC. It seems to decode everything except beacons from aprsdroid using a B-tech UV-pro with the Bluetooth TNC. When my digipeater running on the raspberry PI repeats the beacon from aprsdroid the laptop will decode it but it will not decode it directly. The laptop will decode from aprsdroid on a different tablet using a uv5r and a b tech k1 cable, it decodes from my windows desktop using pinpoint APRS Direwolf and a uv5r with a digirig. Am I missing something?

Android gpsRelay app
I have been using this app as a replacement for the gpsd forwarder app. What is nice is you can set up multiple hosts you want to relay to with the option to turn off/on as needed the phone and other hosts running gpsd must be on the same network. Each of my gpsd hosts's /etc/default/gpsd file is setup with DEVICES="udp:*:9999". On the phone press the + to add a remote host. Choose udp and put the remote host IP with the port you used in the gpsd configuration file on the remote host. Try it and see if you like it. Download the Version 2.0 apk file and install it on your phone. https://f-droid.org/en/packages/io.github.project_kaat.gpsdrelay/ Tom N2TCP

How to install TQSL with Mint?
Lots of problems trying to get TQSL installed. OS Linux Mint on a 64 bit laptop. On my Pi there was a script to install TQSL but it is not showing in Mint (and it's not working on the Pi). I'm not that well versed in Linux to install from the ARRL download.. Help? Greg NZ6E

Winlink Express on 73Linux 2
I successfully updated VARA HF and VARA FM on my Raspi 4b/73 Linux using Jason's YT video guide. I was also able to successfully install Winlink Express and VARAC. Both applications start. I still must try them out on my rig once I get the Pi to my shack. This inspired me. I took an old Lenovo laptop that was running Windows 10 and outfitted it with Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. For some unknown reason version 24.0x LTS would not install. Oh well. I then installed 73Linux. I had to re-install Ubuntiu because I use a foreign language (German), and 73Linux cannot yet handle that. So I re-installed with the (US) English version. I then had to disable Wayland and enable the X11 graphic display. Then, everything worked fine. VARA and VARA HF installed without a hitch. I then tried to install Winlink Express using the the procedure I used on the Pi. The program actually installed. It will however not start. The mouse symbol rotates for a couple of minutes like it doe for any program that is starting, but then there is nothing. My guess is that some program file(s) (dll?) may be missing in Winlink Express or Wine. Does anyone have an idea what this may be? David
