Re: Transmitter stays keyed too long. T/R Delay rime
David Ranch
开云体育Hello John,Curious, what device are you using?? Even with Echolink, a keydown delay of 1.5sec is really way to slow. --David KI6ZHD On 12/05/2016 01:46 PM, John KD8DVR

The device was designed specifically for Echolink. This lack of an

adjustable T/R delay was intentional. They sell another device that is identical, except the T/R delay is adjustable. Of course, I read this later. My Rigblaster should have no issue with DW. I need to get all set up again. My move to Windows 10 and other stuff has me rebuilding. I was mostly just tinkering with that HT adapter on applications other than Echolink, that it was designed for. -------- Original Message --------

1.5 seconds is an eternity.? Even lousy HTs can T/R switch faster than that.? I would investigate getting that shortened. -Doug- On Sun, Dec 4, 2016 at 2:11 PM, John KD8DVR kd8dvr@... [direwolf_packet] <direwolf_packet@...> wrote:

like it has a TX to RX delay that's set to 1.5 seconds. The RX to TX time is good. I *can* also use my Rigblaster Nomic with my IC-2200H, (which I actually do all the rest of the time) so there is a definite way for me to be on packet. I'm just playing with HTs. -------- Original Message --------

T/R Delay rime Hello John, Which HT are you using? Though HTs will work, their TX keyup times can be pretty slow (250ms+). Settings in the direwolf.conf file for TXDELAY (time Direwolf waits after the PTT signal has been given before it starts playing the AFSK packet sounds) and TXTAIL (the delay after the AFSK sounds are complete before it PTT signal is removed). |

Re: RPi iGate next step.
David certainly knows the ins and outs of Dire Wolf better than I, and he recently recommended something to another operator that I wasn't aware of - which is pretty slick.?

Re: RPi iGate next step.
David Ranch
开云体育Hello Alex,So it sounds like you want to display various stats from the APRS world onto an LCD display.? That shouldn't be too hard to do. ?? - First, you need to get a display.? The HamHud seems to use a 16 character x 4 lines display but there are LOTS of alternatives: ? ? ? - 16x2 LCDs: might be too small - ???? - 20x4 - ???? - There are lots of full color LCDs out there too (3.5", 4.0", etc) but maybe they won't be readable enough for your installation For example, here is a 20x4 project that's well documented: ?? Once you have the display working, I imagine parsing the STDOUT output from Direwolf won't be too difficult --David On 12/04/2016 08:09 AM,

RPi iGate next step.
My RPi and RTL dongle iGate is really working well. It has taken a bit of sorting out after I tracked down a problem with a knackered SD card but it is perfect now.
One next step for me is to get some kind of output to a screen. I don't want to just output the console as it is but would like the data to be cleaned up and displayed nicely on an LCD. I have no experience with this kind of thing so any pointers would be appreciated. I've heard of something called and that kind of output is what I'm after. If that gives you a clue. After that it'll be weather data, but that will be another day Thanks Alex, g7kse |

Re: Packet Terminal Program for Droid, etc.
Nope. APRS, though. Just Lynn's (KJ4ERJ) . recently under development. 73, Jim A. On Sat, Dec 3, 2016 at 5:00 PM, John Huggins john.huggins.ee@... [direwolf_packet] <direwolf_packet@...> wrote:
