Hi All,
On my second Direwolf installation.? Previous was in a tracker. Loved it.?? This time I'm working on an iGate to potentially be used in APRS tactical messaging applications.? In my use case, some traffic will be by radio and some via server.
I'm hoping to take advantage of the decoded traffic logs, but I'm finding in my searches that at least as recently as 2020, iGate traffic isn't logged, only RF traffic.? I have LOGDIR set and an RF channel configured with IGTXVIA (which just isn't hooked up at the moment), but it's not logging anything, leading me to believe that RF traffic logging is only for received RF traffic (as opposed to transmitted traffic as well).
Have there been any developments on this front since then? Logging screen output to a logfile would require me to decode the packets, and I'd rather not reinvent the wheel.? Unfortunately, I can't seem to find mention of the RF only logging in what Github currently has for the user guide (section 9.5) - V1.7 10/2023.? I might also add that the file format description reported to be "later in this section" is also absent in that document.
Did I miss a more recent version somewhere?
If there still isn't an option to have Direwolf log iGate traffic, may I request that addition to the feature list please? And if that's the case, does anyone have recommendations on an expedient way to get to decoded iGate packets?? I thought I saw a library somewhere.? Might have to go find that again.
Also, not sure that it's relevant to the question, but currently my setup is running in a Debian 12 VM in Virtual Box (under Win11).? I don't have it hooked to a radio for RF functionality currently, but the iGate is configured with some source filters and it's humming away with the packets I want to see.? That won't be my final setup, but it's handy for testing and development.
Any help appreciated.
