Re: Missing Weather on Local Map

Hi Andrew

I think I have the answer. I changed radios. The original is an old Midland that has served me well for many years. It has a fixed output of 25 watts. The radio I am now using has an output of 5 watts. Va3pec now digipeats my signal. The problem started when we lost our nearby igate and we need ve3uel to reach one.? The problem appears to be too much power on my part.

?

My station was digipeating so I could see my tracker come home. Without it my car never reaches home.

?

You saw the ‘X” as I was using xastir as a test to see if maybe I had a corrupt YAAC. I do not.

?

Thanks for your help. Inow have a better understanding of how it all works.

Well, to me, aprs.fi is showing VE2EP-1's weather data, but his raw packets do seem to be missing the field that documents the weather station hardware (Peet Bros, Davis, etc.) in the weather sequence. He should configure that on his weather input port in YAAC.

?

It is strange that his weather station is also configured as a digipeater, because I see YAAC's automatic appending of his supported digipeat aliases after the weather data. Also, when I first logged on to aprs.fi, it was showing his station with the 'X' icon for Xastir (or Unix in general) stations rather than the blue WX circle icon. Was someone jamming him?

?

I'm wondering how he is not seeing his own packets echoed back by some digipeater, unless there is either collisions from two or more nearby digipeaters (so the echoback of his packets is always destroyed at his listening area), or he has a viewing filter set up on his YAAC instance that is excluding the echoback of his packets.

HI Andrew

?

I am the "neighbour" that Ian refers to -? VA3JLF-1.? And my yaac map shows the correct weather for both my and Ian's stations.? I understand your explanation of the different paths and so on but why is my station VA3JLF-1 not suffering the same fate as his?? Is there some setting in yaac that is causing this?? He and I have compared settings, unless we have missed something, they appear to be the same on both systems.

?

Any help in solving this would be appreciated because we have scratched our collective heads and come up empty.
