You could run additional ports on the same QRG and remain compatible with Net105, if you flip sideband:

I am wondering if there is any local (logs, monitor, etc) way to monitor exactly what your radio is broadcasting / receiving while running linbpq?? Runing Ubuntu server with direwolf.

Here is a demo of how to set up monitoring in QtTermTCP?

Polling for mail

 

Wondering if someone would be able to point me in right direction.

I like hanging out on Net105 as there is a ton of activity there. But, I would like to participate in another net that has BBS to BBS forward (something that is frowned upon in 14.105). Is there any documentation on how to script a change in frequency, poll for mail, send mail, and then return to the original frequency of 14.105?

I saw someplace briefly mentioned scripting, but I am not finding it again when I am looking for it.

Thanks!

Re: Logging / Monitoring linbpq

 

I redirect my direwolf output to a file using a standard redirect. It's something like "direwolf -c /path/to/config.conf > /var/log/direwolf.log"

Thanks John, I deleted my first post as I had asked the question way back and had missed your response. My apologies for re-asking the same question. All set now.

Not directly. You need some form of terminal program. I suggest QTTermTCP.

Re: Radio port not found / rigctld

RADIO 3 is looking for the radio associated with port 3 and KISS ports don't support Rigcontrol.

To access the rig defined as RADIO 3 you use RADIO R3.

Either way, f is invalid, as it is interpreted as a frequency. To display the current frequency the command is RADIO R3 Freq

The problem is radio port found:

radio 3 f
KO4YAW-7} Sorry - Port not found


The configuration file sections are:
?

PORT
?PORTNUM=3

?PROTOCOL=KISS
?IPADDR=127.0.0.1
?TCPPORT=8001

?DIGIPORT=0
?UNPROTO=FBB
?MHEARD=Y
ENDPORT

RADIO 3
? HAMLIB 127.0.0.1:4532

And just to be sure rigctld is actually running:
?
root@thebox:/usr/local/LINBPQ# ps -ax|grep rigctl
? 10548 ???????? Ssl??? 0:00 /usr/bin/rigctld -m 1011 -r /dev/ttyUSB0 -s 4800 -T 127.0.0.1 -t 4532 -v >> /var/log/rigctld.log 2>&1
? 13842 pts/3??? S+???? 0:00 grep --color=auto rigctl
root@thebox:/usr/local/LINBPQ# rigctl -m2 -r127.0.0.1

Rig command: f
Frequency: 1993830

Rig command: m
Mode: LSB
Passband: 2200

I would really like to be able to use rigctld to change frequency at certain times of the day but for some reason am having no luck with it.? I may have to setup some cron jobs to do this outside of linbpq, something I would prefer not to do.

Thanks!

My entire APRS cfg sections began this thread- I adjusted the host recently based on another user here who posted their cfg. Mine was having same issue before I adjusted. Does this look normal? Thx.

Re: piBPQAPRS, segmentation fault

You may have found a new bug. You should be able to get some debugging info by running linbpq under gdb (the linux debugger). ?See message #37092 for details.

?

If gdb isn’t installed on your system you should be able to install with sudo apt install gdb

Is there any solution to segmentation fault crashes like installing a fresh pilinbpq or other method? I do not have any method of detecting crashes and restarting BPQ- I just don't have the knowledge to set that up (or even auto start for that matter).?

Port forwarded, Pi restarted (has static ip, DDNS, and been forwarding 8010, 8011, 8012, and 10093, etc for years), but still getting "APRS Igate connect failed". Forwarding working I am able to get to Pi web interface from cellular network.
Thx.

Hi All,

I know the documentation states "two" ports, but any chance it can do multiple ie; 3 or 4 soundmodems?
