Setup...
FTM-857D
FTM-300DR
2 x SCU-17
Linux Mint 20.3
AMD Ryzen Embedded 1605B 16GB
I'm trying to figure out how to configure Direwolf to act as a TNC for the 300. Yes the 300 has APRS built in but I want to do over the air packet and APRS with mapping and all the features that come with using a PC application. Obviously the APRS modem in the radio will be turned off during this time.
I'm new to TNC stuff. I've used JS8Call, FT8, FLDigi, ect but those connect directly to the sound device or at least connect through pulse.
I need Direwolf to connect directly to the SCU-17 that is connect to the 300DR or at least directly through some virtual interface to the USB sound interface as I have 2 radio connected to the same machine.
One is a 857D the other a 300DR.
The idea is to be able to operate digital HF and APRS at the same time if needed but for now I'm just focusing on VHF/UHF
Heck it might even be nice to be able to act as a bridge for APRS HF and APRS VHF or UHF, but I think that would complicate things. For now just getting Direwolf to connect to my SCU-17 to do packet via my 300DR is a great start.
Any help is appreciated.
My Google-foo seems to have failed in finding a how to on just configuring Direwolf as a TNC
Obviously by my misc jumping around in my description I'm a bit flustered trying to figure this out.
