1. I mean reporting to APRS-IS, I-Gate only.
?
before uiview32, now direwolf with OpenWebRX.
?
OpenWebRX is a web-based SDR?receiver?uses direwolf to decode APRS. -> ???
?
As far as I know, OpenWebRX writes WAV files to decode them with direwolf. but don't pin me down.

Do you mean:
1. Report _from_ your station _to_ APRS-IS, or
2. Report _from_ APRS-IS to your Internet client?

Where "your station" is UIView32 or Direwolf.

I know from experience that I-gate software varies in how long they take to get a packet from the radio to the Internet. My own APRS program YAAC is known to be a very slow I-gate, but I optimized it for fast reporting to the local user versus fast pushing to the APRS-IS.

What exactly is openwebrx? Is this being placed between Direwolf and your Internet connection, rather than letting Direwolf send directly to the APRS-IS?

Hi Andrew,
?
but why does the station reports?with uiview-32 sucessful, but with direwolf under openwebrx not?
?
Alone because of the running time?
?
I'm confused

Uh, are we back with the misunderstanding and false assumption that APRS-IS can be used for propagation analysis?

Remember, the APRS-IS _always_ discards all but the first-received (by the APRS-IS backbone) copy of any given packet. So, if multiple I-gates hear the same packet, only the _earliest_ I-gate's copy of the packet will get through to APRS-IS receiving clients. Period. You can't make the APRS-IS send duplicate packets from a slow I-gate.

Please keep this in mind when designing your APRS-IS client.

But the received traffic can be seen in the screenshot of the console in the previous post?

I don't know what to say here other than aprs.fi is not showing any real heard traffic from your station.? I would assume this is a levels issue with your SDR or an I/O issue between the SDR software --> Direwolf.? In the terminal window that has Direwolf running, you should be seeing decoded packets from all of the packets stations on frequency.? If you're not seeing decodes, this again points back to a form of "audio level issues".?

Some documentation can be found here.



Dire Wolf is mentioned as being used as the decoder for packet radio.??

It is not clear whether openwebrx has its own IGate implementation or uses the one built into Dire Wolf.? That is the first question that needs to be answered.

If the Dire Wolf IGate is being used, there might be a filter in the configuration file.

If openwebrx has has its own IGate implementation, it might report only moving objects.

No IGate implementation in OpenWebRX, all reporting happens from direwolf.

There is no filters in the config file.
