Hi all,
Direwolf works great for years now without any hickups. Eventually, there are some "experts" with a little or none awareness that they abuse radio traffic with their so called perfect digipeaters which emmits weather conditions every freakin minute or less, with fixed location, made of some arduinos or so... Been there, not the right path. I want to block specific callsigns from digipeating. Is that possible somehow? They are in the RF range of my digi and I can hear them very well. Suppose that this can be done with filters, but that is much more complicated cause I need to allow ALL OTHER stations (manually) ?
Thanks!

That is an easy one. After your digipeater definition add a filter like this:
FILTER 0 0 ! d/callsign1/callsign2/etc...
You can use this to block one, or more digipeaters. I use ! d/* to block all digipeater traffic and only digipeat stations heard directly.
Good luck Patrick (N3TSZ)

Or, you could use ! b/callsign1/callsign2/etc... to block individual stations. If you do not like digipeating weather data, use ! s/_ to block the weather station symbol. Section 9.6 of the User Guide describes Packet Filtering in detail.

Honest question.? Not trying to be combative as I've learned something in this thread and am thankful for it.
Have you reached out to the offending station to offer guidance/suggestions?? As someone who is fairly new to APRS, I'd welcome an Elmer setting me straight.? I've even put my email address in my beacon in case someone wants to reach me.
73!

Travis,
yes, tried several times with nice approach, and of course that I have my email to beacons... Still nothing. I even offered him to give him for free complete digi with Rpi3 plus direwolf, all set and tuned... :(
Thank you Patrick, now will try with filters!!!

I try contacting people when I can as well with maybe 50% luck.
?
Here is a filter I use at a specific site where I only want to digipeat if the position is within 16 km of the point, or it is Messages, Status or Telemetry, BUT nothing allowed from callsign1-1 or callsign2*
?
FILTER 0 0 (r/37.51/-121.59/16 | t/mst ) &? ( ! b/callsign1-1/callsign2* )
? [ the parenthesis might be off in this example, so user beware ]
?
You might want a filter range of 200km or more.? This keeps non-locked GPS from digipeating.
Ideally more should be allowed to digipeat, but this will show additional options.
