Re: Direwolf as a TNC Help

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý


Hello Patrick,

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.

This is very possible.


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

Only one sound device will be available at any one time to a program but if you operate "digital HF" on your FT857 using SCU-17#1 while you operate "VHF APRS" on your FTM300 using SCU-17#2, that will work fine.? Any other combination than that will be very difficult if not impossible as neither radio supports dual sound inputs.


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.


Have you read the Direwolf User Guide and given it a try??

??

Please do can some back here if you have any problems.? If you're currently stuck, please provide lots of details of what's the issue and only then can people really help you.

In practice I use APRS32 with DW and SignalinkUSB. For Outpost I use KPC-3+, I have performed Outpost with DW a few times. MMSSTV to the SignalinkUSB.

I have experimented with Raspberry Pi4 (Linux) where I installed APRS32 and DW, using the SignalinkUSB to connect to radio. I have yet to figure out how DW recognizes the comm ports. Seems RPi with DW is perfect for long running sessions of APRS32. Small size, less power, etc.

Direwolf as a TNC Help

 

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.

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.


Number of clients.

 

Can Direwolf be compiled so it supports more than three clients?

Re: adding third soundcard on RPi4b Issue #cm108 #dinah #dra-50 #rpi4b

 

Just a thought to consider, have you tried running the USB devices with a
powered USB hub? It might be possible you are running out power with your Pi
power supply with the number of devices plugged in.

Hmmm... does these extra sound cards have unique USB serial numbers, or are
they all serial number zero?

I ran into an interesting problem with a couple of USB-to-RS232 adapters I
had. Same cheap no-name brand, same chipset, both serial number zero.
Individually they worked fine. When I plugged the second device into my
system (Fedora Core, don't remember which drop) while the first one was
still connected, the system hung as soon as I tried to access the serial
ports. The only way I could avoid it was to not use both identical devices
on the same system (the GPS is now connected through a different brand
USB-to-RS232 adapter with a different chipset).

Since you're using cheap USB sound chips in these adapters (and probably the
same brand and model), do they have identical serial numbers to thereby
confuse the USB drivers? It seems to cost extra money to get USB adapter
chips with unique serial numbers, so that's something that is commonly
skipped in the low-budget parts.

Re: adding third soundcard on RPi4b Issue #cm108 #dinah #dra-50 #rpi4b

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý


Hmmm.. ok.? That's an important detail.? Next up, when this happens, what does the end part of "dmesg" and the other key journald logs show?? Best I can tell, you're getting USB resets.? Are all three connected directly to the USB ports on the Rpi 4B?? Maybe connect all three of them to a POWERED USB hub and then connect the hub to either a USB2 or USB3 port on the Pi?

If you turn off your radios and restart Direwolf, does it still error out?? If not, does it run ok for a while?? I mention this as I think you're having RFI issues which are knocking out either your USB bus or one of your sound devices.

Re: AX.25 Packet Survey

 

Computer: PC
OS: XP 32-bit
TNC: Kantronics KPC-3+
External soundcard: SignalinkUSB
Software: Direwolf, Outpost, APRS32, MMSSTV

In practice I use APRS32 with DW and SignalinkUSB. For Outpost I use KPC-3+, I have performed Outpost with DW a few times. MMSSTV to the SignalinkUSB.

I have experimented with Raspberry Pi4 (Linux) where I installed APRS32 and DW, using the SignalinkUSB to connect to radio. I have yet to figure out how DW recognizes the comm ports. Seems RPi with DW is perfect for long running sessions of APRS32. Small size, less power, etc.

Hello Members,
I am creating a user guide for new AX.25 packet radio operators that include current as well as legacy equipment. Since this is a Direwolf Group, it would be grat tp know what is working well - as well as not so well - with Direwolf and your station hardware.
