I’ve had a weewx WX station running for years, but it send the WX CWOP packets out as APRS-IS. I’d like to send them as RF. Anyone doing so and know how? I’ve seen it can be integrated with APRX to send its WX info packets out as RF, but I’d rather use my existing Direwolf setup rather than switch to using APRX.

Thanks!

Hello,

Anyone also running a weewx WX station and sending WX packets from WX out as RF via DireWolf?

I’ve had a weewx WX station running for years, but it send the WX CWOP packets out as APRS-IS. I’d like to send them as RF. Anyone doing so and know how? I’ve seen it can be integrated with APRX to send its WX info packets out as RF, but I’d rather use my existing Direwolf setup rather than switch to using APRX.

Thanks!

Re: Interface documentation for programmers

 

Although I see a lot of good in the AGW protocol, it does add an extra layer.
Why not just use KISS over TCP/IP.
Then you are using the standard protocol for hardware TNCs.
There is a lot of code (and even libraries) for the KISS protocol.
The only differnece between getting data from a hardware TNC and a software TNC would be the source (TCP or COMM port).?

The spec is available in a couple of places. Here's one:



There is some example?code in C++ and Delphi (yes, really), but I didn't find it of much help. Working from the descriptive text, I wrote a full Python client that works against Direwolf, ldsped and AGWPE itself. Depending on what you want to do, you may also need code to work with AX.25 packets.

Direwolf can also talk via KISS, though that's more limited.

Hope that helps.

Hello John,

While Martin's response is spot on for communicating packets from the Direwolf TNC to the Xastir APRS application, maybe you're wanting something different?? Can you describe what you want to do?

Re: Weewx to Direwolf

 

i do wx like greg says, via aprsis.? sending via rf only would require pushing it via the direwolf kiss api.

you can generate the weewx WX aprs packet with this,?

? ? ?https://github.com/cavedon/weewx-aprs

then push it to aprsis with telnet or similar.

my direwolf's watch for this packet coming from the internet and transmit on RF

cool,

Hello.

So. weewx is writing out a text file eve then APRIS32 (on a Win computer) is sending it RF! ?I was hoping to have just the RPi do everything, send it to DireWolf then to radio..

Re: DINAH on PI Zero

Oh, it can get worse. I was using a USB audio dongle to interface to a mobile rig, and RF got into the cable. It caused the system (a Pi 3b) to think the Volume Down button had been pressed, causing the transmission to fail. And the zero volume couldn't be changed with the mixer, nor would it reset with a reboot. I think it ran negative and crashed something internal.

Fixing the RF problem by rebuilding the cable with proper shielding prevented future events, but I never figured out what was happening internally.

one transmission.

HT's are unique in that the ground wire is generally the other half of the antenna, and that
ground wire extends into the audio interface.?? I've never seen the Pi Zero lock up, as it
always seems to impact the audio interface, which stops responding or times out.

The fix, in every situation is a large ferrite bead around the ptt/audio/ground cable
between the radio and the pi/audio interface.? 100% fix in my experience.

Not all beads are equal, these seem to work in particular?

Still looking for a fix on this. Workaround has been fine so far. As long as it shows last in the list it will select it.
