Another issue, if you want to connect UIview to the Internet, is the outdated
list of APRS-IS servers presented when you go to "Setup", "APRS Server
Setup".??? For many years, my website at
<>? had a discussion of this issue and
provided links to download a replacement server list.??? I just discovered that
all these links have gone bad too.??? Here is the revised paragraph I just
posted on my UIview_Notes page:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*APRS Server List*??? Pulling down "File, Download APRS Server List" tries to
send you to the URL to download a current list
of available APRS Internet servers. This address has been obsolete for over a
decade.
One used to be able to replace this list with one downloaded from
? instead. This link is now dead. The home
page at <>?? now yields a placeholder
page with no information or links on it.
However * yields a comprehensive list of current
servers for both the CORE and TIER2 aprs networks. This is NOT in the form of a
simple text file you can download and install into UIview. However, you can
study the list, pick a few servers of interest to you (presumably the ones
closest to you) and enter them as additions to the original list in UIview.
Or you can use one of the virtual servers that randomly assign you a real
server.? Add one of these to the original server list in UIview and check it.
Go to "Setup, APRS Server Setup" and press the "Insert" key. Then enter one of
the server names below:
*rotate.aprs2.net:14580*? (randomly assigns a server anywhere in the world)
*noam.aprs2.net:14580*?? (randomly assigns a server in North America)
*soam.aprs2.net:14580 *(randomly assigns a server in South America*)
euro.aprs2.net:14580*?? (randomly assigns a server in Europe)
*asia.aprs2.net:14580*??? (randomly assigns a server in Asia)
A list of North American servers, is located here on the WA8LMF website:
