?It's me, WA8LMF.? KJ4ERJ generates an object for the current
location of the International Space Station and injects it into
the APRS-IS every two minutes.??
I take this object off the APRS-IS and retransmit it on the new
APRS-over-VARA channel so people have a test signal to verify
their QSY to the new channel is working.?
On UIview (but no other APRS clients I am aware of) you get both
the point object for the point directly under the ISS, and an
approximately circular area object showing the ISS's current radio
footprint on the ground.
By the way, I got an email less than an hour ago that Lynn KJ4ERJ
just passed away.? I suspect the ISS object won't be around much
longer.....
