I am in need of major help
|
I have been trying to set up Dyer Wolf on a raspberry pie for two weeks now and I have watched every YouTube video googled everything and I just don’t understand it and it’s a very frustrating. I’m not sure where to start. I don’t do code on computers, so I’m very confused on how to configure this and make it run on a raspberry pie. Please, please, please help me. I want to Set it up for aprs with digipeter and igate. I believe I have all the right cables. I just need to get this raspberrypie working. This is my first raspberrypie Like I said, very new beginner.?

So I have read this document and assume?that I have any idea what?these acronyms mean. At this point I think I am going to give up as it seems that this is impossible for me. Sorry for the inconvenience?but this software stuff is apparently not for me. Between youtube and reading the pdf and not getting anywhere for the hours that i have put into this. It was supposed to be a fun learning experience?but has just turned into a headache.??

Every youtube video that I try to follow the program states that there is a new way of doing it. And then I can't seem to find the sound card port that it is looking for. So I am unsure what to do at this time. I am beond frustrated at this point. From what I read before doing this everyone said this was easy. Well I have been at this for over two weeks and have gotten nowhere. What am I doing wrong.?

I'm running a rx only igate with a pi5 and a sdrplay rsp1b. It's been working for weeks. I tail -F x.log on another computer to
watch it run. I'm using UDP as the source. this is how I start direwolf: nohup direwolf -c ./aprs.conf -t 0 -n 1 -b 16 -B 1200 -r 48000 udp:7355 >x.log & here is aprs.conf (adjust lat, lon, callsign) ACHANNELS 1 CHANNEL 0 MODEM 1200 AGWPORT 8000 KISSPORT 8001 FX25TX 1 PERSIST 63 SLOTTIME 12 RETRY 5 FRACK 5 MAXFRAME 4 #Set MAXFRAME to 1 for HF Packet #MAXFRAME 1 PACLEN 128 #PACLEN 64 FOR HF DWAIT 0 TXDELAY 50 TXTAIL 40 ADEVICE udp:7355 null # ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # aprs # ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MYCALL YOURCALL-10 PBEACON sendto=IG delay=1 every=30 symbol="igate" overlay=R lat=35.632... ambig=1 long=-82.536... height=20 gain=9 alt=700 comment="IGATE only, direwolf, rpi5" IGTXLIMIT 6 10 IGSERVER noam.aprs2.net IGLOGIN YOURCALL-10 15489 |
开云体育Hello Evan, If you're willing to keep trying, I'm sure many people here on this list would be happy to help but you need to give us something to answer.? Can you copy/paste in some errors, screen shots.. something for us to help you with? --David KI6ZHD On 07/08/2024 09:43 AM, Evan

But the problem is I can't even get past the install of direwolf. I have been unable to open anything as the program goes. do i use the terminal or do i just download it via the internet |

Maybe you could post your progress. ?The very first post by Jason pointed you to a document that gives the exact steps to install dependencies and compile Direwolf.
?
So first question, did you get the dependencies installed? ?If not then post the error you get when installing them.
Also post which pi 3,4,5?? and also which distribution is on the pi.
?
To get help you must provide more details.

Hello, Evan.
Don't give up.? There are a lot of people here ready to help. Many others have been successful and you will be too. Look for the file called Raspberry-Pi-APRS.pdf in Tell us precisely where you get stuck. It sounds like you might need some more basic instruction about the Raspberry Pi. This might be a good place to start: ? 73, John WB2OSZ |
开云体育Evan,We are here to help, so please explain the board and the OS that you use, steps you have done and screenshot of the error. 73 de Yono YD0NXX / N5SNN On Jul 8, 2024, at 11:43?PM, Evan VandenLangenberg <cwfd37@...> wrote:

Do you have the RPi up and running by itself, or is this a ground up install? Have you used the "Imager" to write the operating system to the SD card? If you used the "Imager" software to write the SD card, you can select the parameters for the RPi install to access your network, and to operate "Headless" (without a monitor and keyboard). This is probably a good place to start, as you can then access the RPi from another computer on the network and load what you want through the remote. From what I can see of the conversation you have not provided much information regarding what OS you are running and the configuration information. It will make it impossible for you to get help without some details. The RPi is NOT like a windows machine as the cut/copy/paste functions very differently. In Windows you can highlight the line, right click and copy. In Linux, it's like click (hold) highlight and then copy by pressing the center button on the mouse (wheel). I hope I got that right as I do it without thinking about it now. To copy from a web page, highlight the line of code, right click and copy. To paste, go to a terminal window (in Linux) and center button. You will have to mess with it a bit to get familiar, but it sounds like you missed a couple of the basics, which is very frustrating.

Thank you all. One of the members here reached out and is really helping me out. Like I figured I was messing it all up as I said I really don't understand the pi but am getting a much better understanding of it now. Hopping to be up and running by the end of the week but in need of some cables I am waiting on.??

开云体育Well first off: is your OS running and can hook log into your pi?What version PI (3, 4, 5, PIZero 2W) are you using? What sound card interface are you using? What radio are you using? On Jul 6, 2024, at 5:18?PM, cwfd37 via groups.io <cwfd37@...> wrote:

Well, for all the help I can be, this is a good place to start. Download and install the Imager to your laptop or whatever computer you use for general purpose stuff. Plug the SD card from the Pi into the card slot on your laptop. You write the SD from a computer other than the RPi.? Follow the instructions/questions that the Imager will ask you. DO put in the network SSID and password, the capability to use the Pi 'headless' will be of benefit. Put in a user name and password for the Rpi and WRITE IT DOWN. This will get the Rpi running and you can access it from your general purpose computer using Putty or some other similar program. Using Putty is quite easy once you get used to how it works and I'll bet there is a Youtube video on how to do it. If you get this up and running you are on your way. Loading and configuring Direwolf is another adventure after you get the Pi running,? Like I tell my wife. One disaster at a time.... If you are successful and get the RPi running at this point, you can download Baleena Etcher and copy your now working SD card to another blank card, so if disaster strikes, you have a working backup. See how you make out to this point and come back again. Someone will be here to answer your next questions. On Sun, Jul 14, 2024 at 1:26?PM Don Rolph via <don.rolph=[email protected]> wrote:
