Hey All,
I'm having difficulty getting my Kenwood TM-D710G going with Internet and
over-the-air communications. I can get it to work with the TNC, but am having
difficulty getting data in from the Internet. I have placed my appropriate
Internet APRS registration number in the program. I was wondering someone
might be able to provide me with some UI-View32 screenshots with a similar
configuration. There must be something that I am missing and I have tried
setting appropriate parameters via reading the posts here. I don't want to
clog up the list, so I would love to have a return email at k1jsh@....
Thanks!

Not sure if this screenshot will pass through the Yahoo list remailer, but
your "Setup, APRS Server Setup" should look something like this:
(see comments below pic)
Note that:
1) You must connect to a valid server. (The original list of servers
provided with UIview is obsolete.)
2) You must log in with a validation number that matches your callsign. (The
Validation number is based on a hash of the callsign. It is NOT the same as the
UIview registration number. It is the second 4 or 5 digit number provided when
you registered UIview.)
3) The "Extra log-on text" field MUST have some sort of filter arguement.
(The default behavior of an APRS-IS server is to send you NOTHING until you
provide a filter. In the example, the filter expression says "Send me
everything within 50 KM (about 30 miles) of my current location.)
4) Even with the correct filter expression, the server will not send you
anything until you send your OWN position to the Internet at least once.
(Else, 50 km from where ???)
