David,
I did not do rpi-update, apparently the installer thought? did not have enough HD room
I have reinstalled pulse audio.
I did not compile direwolf, I installed it from the standard repository.
AFAIK, I am the only igate in the area and the one APRS "repeater" in our area is only beaconing, not repeating.
I have seen the messages from direwolf to try to get the recognized audio level to 50. With he Signalink, it's not too bad to get working, the usb soundcard is a PITA. I haven't been able to get that to work.
I already have Xastir using Open Street Maps on the Pi, bit I rarely use Xastir on the Pi, and so not use it to digipeat.
The autostartup is a simple script executed from the session/startup module in XF4CE.
Of the main problems I am having is that they system does not transmit the APRS data packet. Direwolf will beacon position packets, as will Xastir. The system igates.
If I can get the system working, I'll only be beaconing every 30 minutes, if that. And, as I said, I'm the only igate in the area.
Also. I am using a 5 watt UV5R, 5 watts into a dual band 450 jpole that is hanging inside my first floor condo which had stucco over wiring for the? outside wall covering.
Thanks,
Rick, KK4GGL
