But, it's the only one that can take a "video" in real time, save it and play it back at a variety of speeds. Yes it's aged, getting maps can be a pain now. The interface for navigating around a mapis quirky but it's the only one that does real time recording. I've got it on several tablets on the Micro SD storage.
Other stuff can save the positions and one can recall a particular station and "Blammm!" it's painted all at once.

Hello Gervais,

No need for trying to do that with UI-View, you can check online anytime when the ISS will pass over your QTH.

Use this site :

and enter your informations.

Or do like myself and go to this site and subscribe with your infos and email address to receive email alerts in advance, for when the ISS will pass overhead of your QTH:

Satellite tracking via the APRS-IS is almost completely useless! There are
numerous well-meaning but misinformed users attempting to feed satellite tracks
to the APRS-IS. Unfortunately, most of them are incorrect or incomplete. You
get two or three objects for the same satellite in different parts of the world
at the same !

Or the data is very locally oriented - i.e. useless messages such as "ISS
signal acquisition in 5 minutes" without saying WHERE. Obviously such a report
would only would apply to one point on the earth's surface. It might make
sense to beacon this kind of information on local RF, but is pointless on a
global network like the APRS-IS.

The one satellite track object that does work correctly is KJ4ERJ's space
station object injected from his virtual (simulated) igate. This beacon is
updated every two minutes and shows the station's actual location. It draws
both a point object for the station's location, and a circular area object
centered around it that shows the station's radio footprint on the ground.
The point object renders correctly on all APRS client programs, but the area
object is only displayed correctly on UIview.

You can receive this object by adding the entry point filter u/APZTLE to
your existing port 14580 filter port expression. It might seem that filtering
for the object name with an expression like o/ISS* would be the obvious
approach. But it doesn't work, because several other users on the APRS-IS are
gating junk under the same alias (ISSxx) which results in two or three space
stations at the same time, at different locations.


By the way, the digipeater on board the space station is currently NOT
WORKING. The only digipeats currently being heard on 145.825 are from "PSAT".
These are much harder to hear since they are coming from a cubesat with a
fractional-watt transmitter, compared to the ISS digi that used a 5-watt
transmitter. It appears that the ISS digipeater will not return to service
until late this summer or next fall when new Kenwood D710s will be sent to the
station.

oui sylvain,

je sais ca mais je veut une identification sur mon uiview ici,,


anyway we can see that uiview is beginning to show some weakness after all those years ,not that it is not good because there still so many users outhere but time is passing also for a software.

i like it,simple and stable!

No need for trying to do that with UI-View, you can check online anytime when the ISS will pass over your QTH.

This might get you a few extra stations, but add s//S to your filter to

You can also send an APRS message to "ISS" with any content and the
auto-responder will tell you when the next pass is coming at your most
recently transmitted location. See also:

File - About Bouncing (Admin message)

 

This message is sent to all new members, and to all members
every now and then. It has been revised as bounce reports have
changed a bit.

Any of us could experience no longer receiving email from the
UI-View support list. You might want to print this message and
review it if you stop receiving messages from the UI-View list.

If you stop receiving messages from the UI-View list, suspect
that either...

1) this or some other Yahoo group that you are a member of is
sending email which some spamblocker system regard as spam or
junk mail (quite a lot of these reports since summer 2009).

2) it may be that your email account has filled up with unread
messages or that the account on your mail server has ran out of
storage space. Read or delete the old messages on your mail server.

3) Some MSN or Hotmail accounts, and others such as arrl.net,
qsl.net which are used as a forwarding address from time to time
cannot forward to your primary address. When this hapens, the
Yahoo group receives an error message with something like
"impossible to relay to xxx" and you are then in the "bounced"
list. There are increasing numbers of bounces from some service
providers about messages which are blocked by them for policy
reasons.

4) You or your email provider have set up a challenge-and-response
system for those sending e-mail to you. The moderators will not
send replies to such challenges. You should select another
address for your list membership(s).

Sorry, but we cannot investigate every one of these blockings.
Please be aware that if you haven't received list messages
for some days, and reactivation requests are not reaching
you, or not answered by you, your account at the UI-View
list may be deleted. It may deleted if several bounces occur
in less than a week or two. It will also be deleted if the
bounce report says that your address is invalid, discontinued,
or unknown. Be aware that the bounce can relate to messages
from other lists than the UI-View list if you are a member
of other Yahoo groups.

If your membership is deleted, you will not be able to log
into the Yahoo group. If you try and send email to the group,
it will be rejected. However, you can subscribe again with a
valid and working email account by sending an empty email to
ui-view-subscribe@....

If you are away for some time, you might want to set your
account to temporarily receive only special messages or
even no email at all, but we recommend that still receive
special messages. You can log into the Yahoo group when you
return and change it back to daily digest or normal email.

Note: A member may send reactivation requests to himself/herself
from the Email Preferences section of My Groups.

73 and good luck - your UI-View group moderators


File - Posting guidelines

 

The UI-View Group is very active. Most already do so,
but here are some some guidelines to follow.

1. Civility... this is practiced well by our members!

2. Sign your messages with your name and callsign.

3. Only post messages and responses that are relevant to UI-View.

4. Use plain text for messages sent to the UI-View support list.
When you address some 5000 recipients, you cannot know what their
email readers do with HTML formatted messages. Some will experience
unreadability.

5. IMPORTANT: When replying to a posting (message), kindly delete
all unnecessary text including the trailing text. Only leave the
poster's name, callsign and the time stamp, and the text from
the prior message about which you are commenting, and then trim
the rest. When viewing messages in the Yahoo web based interface,
the command [Up Thread] at the top of the message can be used, and
many email clients can group messages by thread also. Some members
have slow connections or pay for bandwidth. Brevity can often
also improve the clarity of your message. Do not top post... i.e.
do not type your reply above the quoted text.

6. When replying to a post, please decide if your comment should
go to the entire group of about 5000 or directly to the author.
Please think before replying to the group... replies like "I sure
do agree with that" do not add much to the group. Send thoughts
like those directly to the poster please.

7. Postings of sale or swapping of items are not wanted.

8. New members are all moderated for a number of postings. If the
messages follow the guidelines, they are approved and the member
is changed to un-moderated status.

This is a partially moderated list, i.e., only the user's first
messages are moderated, but all messages are monitored after posting.
If an un-moderated posting is found by the moderators to have a
problem, then the poster is changed to moderated status and in
most cases also contacted directly to resolve whatever has caused
the problem.

Actions are taken against those that chronically violate the rules.
The reason for this form of moderation is to block spammers from the
list and it is working well.

9. Do not add disclaimers to your posts that (1) restrict the ability
of other members to use the information you post, (2) claim a copyright
to your post, or (3) to claim any type of "rights" as a consequence of
another member replying to your post either directly to you or to the group.

10. Do not use anti-spam tools like challenge/response; the moderators
will not respond, and since messages to you then will bounce, you most
probably will be removed as a user of the group.

Re: Yaesu FTM-400DR & UIVIEW SETTINGS

 

Thanks for your comments. This is exactly what I needed to know. Unfortunately this posting has been taken out of context by some as to who makes the best radio or personal preferences. I thought Amateur Radio was about experimentation, growth and enjoyment.

I appreciate your comments as I really need a full functioning TNC to do what I want to do. My desire was toc try another digital mode with the Yaesu Fusion and still have APRS full functioning. It's not meant to be at this time.

storage space. Read or delete the old messages on your mail server.

3) Some MSN or Hotmail accounts, and others such as arrl.net,
qsl.net which are used as a forwarding address from time to time
cannot forward to your primary address. When this hapens, the
Yahoo group receives an error message with something like
"impossible to relay to xxx" and you are then in the "bounced"
list. There are increasing numbers of bounces from some service
providers about messages which are blocked by them for policy
reasons.

4) You or your email provider have set up a challenge-and-response
system for those sending e-mail to you. The moderators will not
send replies to such challenges. You should select another
address for your list membership(s).

Sorry, but we cannot investigate every one of these blockings.
Please be aware that if you haven't received list messages
for some days, and reactivation requests are not reaching
you, or not answered by you, your account at the UI-View
list may be deleted. It may deleted if several bounces occur
in less than a week or two. It will also be deleted if the
bounce report says that your address is invalid, discontinued,
or unknown. Be aware that the bounce can relate to messages
from other lists than the UI-View list if you are a member
of other Yahoo groups.

If your membership is deleted, you will not be able to log
into the Yahoo group. If you try and send email to the group,
it will be rejected. However, you can subscribe again with a
valid and working email account by sending an empty email to
ui-view-subscribe@....

If you are away for some time, you might want to set your
account to temporarily receive only special messages or
even no email at all, but we recommend that still receive
special messages. You can log into the Yahoo group when you
return and change it back to daily digest or normal email.

Note: A member may send reactivation requests to himself/herself
from the Email Preferences section of My Groups.

73 and good luck - your UI-View group moderators

This is a UI-View group, but since we seem to be talking about Yaesu radios, I'll ask the question:

Are you sure that the Yaesu System Fusion (their implementation of C4FM) is proprietary? Yaesu has published the data protocol on their web site without an explicit copyright and there's no mention of licensing the protocol. Yes, I know the vocoder is licensed from DVSI, Inc.

Are you sure about the word proprietary? I thought it was just the AMBE chip
that was licensed. When does the AMBE patent run out?
It's not the AMBE vocoder that is the issue. Practically all the digital voice
formats use it.

It's the way the digital data stream coming out of the vocoder is diced,
sliced, surrounded by error-correcting codes, packetized into blocks of varying
lengths, headers added, varying bit rates, etc before any of this hits the
actual radio modulator that make the various formats transmitted over
4-frequency FSK incompatible with each other.


PS - if you don’t like the term C4FM, you could just call it System Fusion.
System Fusion is also a horrible term - it refers to the automatic recognition
and switching between analog and digital modes. It doesn't say anything about
the nature of the digital mode used.

There’s a lot more to the FTM-400 than not being able to send data to the TNC.
However, the original poster was primarily interested in the use of UIview with
the radio - i.e. TNC connectivity issues.

The FTM-400 is a dream to use. C4FM (OK, System Fusion!) sounds a lot better
than D-STAR.
Agreed.

All the other digital voice modes attempt to cram the data stream into a 12.5
KHz occupied bandwidth (i.e. equivalent of 2.5 KHz analog deviation),
constraining the possible bitrate for the sampled audio.    The result is
either a higher error rate or muffled crappy audio or both.   Yaesu's digital
format is the only one that uses the full 20/25 KHz radio bandwidth (i.e.
occupied bandwidth equivalent to a classic 5 KHz-deviated analog FM signal). 
This supports a higher bit rate and higher-quality audio stream that sounds
almost analog.

In the US, at least,  it has been MANDATORY in ALL the NON-ham radio services
(commercial land mobile, public-safety, etc) since 2014 (I think) to use an
occupied RF bandwidth no wider than the equivalent of a 2.5KHz-deviated analog
FM signal.  ( I.e. 12.5 KHz channel spacing.)   You can opt for 2.5KHz
"sliver-band" analog FM, but the vast majority of users have switched to
low-bit-rate narrow-band digital formats.   (2.5KHz-deviated analog FM is
awful. There's half as much audio recovery as the classic 5KHz FM, so the
slightest loss of full quieting is deadly, and virtually no impulse noise
suppression. At such a low deviation index, it's practically like AM!)    This
is all in aid of doubling the number of land-mobile radio channels at the
expense of audio quality.

We in the amateur bands ARE NOT subject to this narrow-banding mandate.
Narrow-band digital modes are a solution looking for a problem in the ham
bands.  The wider-banded Yaesu digital fomat with it's potential for
simultaneous data and decent voice due to it's wider bandwidth makes far more
sense to me.
