Please let us know.? Several folks said it as working last week so this could be a process down or a change in the Winlink system.

Yet again I stumble. I meant sending WINLINK email via APRS is what I was told was obsolete. There is a way to send generic email via APRS. I just do not know the details. I think my son got it working, I will consult with him.

Wlnk-1 worked at least last week.?
|
I used it a few days ago following the instructions on the winlink website for APRS link
|
No WLNK-1 is dead or at least something has changed.? I can send Winlink fine otherwise but not via YAAC.? Andrew is this what you used for design???
Hi, first post, new to APRS, but was very active with packet back in the 80's.. wow long time ago..?
Anyway, I have an account with winlink email.. and have a login and password.? But it's elusive to me how to email from YAAC?
I keep getting invalid login challenge response..?
I saw? something about the program should mix in the password with? seq number.. but have no idea where I use the password in YAAC.?
probably a no brainer.. but need a bit of help.?
Thanks es 73?

I was never able to get the built-in email screen to work. I was able to use the basic YAAC messaging send/receive feature with WLNK-1 as the destination to use the APRSLink methodology... https://www.winlink.org/APRSLink
|
That did it!? I knew it was something I had done.? Thanks!
There is (or was) a crude APRS-to-Winlink gateway once upon a time. I'm not sure if it is still working, and whether or not its interface protocol over APRS has changed since I wrote the APRS-Winlink client screen in YAAC.

What little I know is that there once was a way to send to winlink.. without a password.. now I think they want part of your password or something like that interlinked with the sequence number ..whatever... it looks like it's not working.. so good to know. I'll quit trying..:-) Thanks? Brad N8YG

Re: Can't turn off Weather view
It looks like you are actually referring to the weather radar overlay, which is a special case within the Raster Map overlay. YAAC knows how to download a radar map from the US National Weather Service and align it automatically (as opposed to the manual alignment for other raster overlays).
To get rid of it, go to View-> Raster Map, and either uncheck (disable) or delete entirely the overlay from the NWS website that is listed in the table of raster maps.
Hope this helps.

YAAC is an APRS client. Winlink is a different protocol. You will need to use a WinLink compatible client to connect to a WinLink node or process traffic.

Packets from IS not igating out to RF
I thought I posted on this a week or so ago but I’m struggling to get packets from IS out over RF through my Igate / Digipeater AG7GK-2
I’m running YAAC with two ports defined:
Serial TNC on TNCPI - works great for Digipeating and igating so far
APRS-IS port - filter is defined as m/120 -p/CW
When I transmit from my HT the Igate picks it up fine and gets to my phone. ?The ACKs are sent from the phone but do not Igate out to RF even though I have RF> IS and IS>RF checked in “Transmit Tab”. ?I’ve tried filters to specifically allow traffic by type and by callsign but no luck. ?I”be not had this problem with APRSIS/32 OR aprx clients but they are deficient in multiple ways compared to YAAC.?
Thoughts? ?
Why do the supplemental Igate filters disappear when I save them to the field on the transmit tab?
HT CALLSIGN: AG7GK-7
PHONE CALLSIGN: AG7GK-8
IGATE / DIGIPEATER: AG7GK-2

Configuration for fill-in digipeater / RF <> IS Igate
Hello, I've been really impressed with YAAC. I have set up a Rpi3 with TNC-PI2 connected to a yeasu 2980R 2m rig.? I originally started with a windows 7 machine running APRS IS/32 which worked great for last couple of months but I wanted something more portable that I can put at a repeater site my buddy has space in so I moved to the TNCPI.? I set up APRX first but it lacks good message management and a basic GUI and I really want to use YAAC.? Which brings me to my one problem: I can't seem to get IS messages back out over RF despite having a Supplemental IF filter set and a filter set on my IS port.? On the other apps I had no problem testing sending from my APRS client on a phone / tablet out to my HT over IS > RF and back again from HT to Phone from RF > IS.? Both RF and IS igating are configured.? I'm assuming it's something to do with the filter OR my digipeat path settings but at this point I'm so turned around I can't get what was working quite easily on my last two configurations to work with this.? Could someone check out my configs and let me know what I'm missing? My callsign SSID assignments are as follows: AG7GK-2 is the Igate / Digipeaters (RF AND APRS-IS CONNECTED) AG7GK-7 is my HT, a yaesu FT2D AG7GK-8 is my Iphone / Ipad (depending on which is connected and on) connected to APRS-IS Main expert General config screen(don't see any relevant settings):  Note: Whenver I set a supplemental Tx-Igate filter it does not "store" in this field, I can't tell if it's working or if it is getting overriden by the APRS-IS port filter.? At this time i set that filter to m/120, or 120km range from my beacon location.? I have RF>IS AND IS > RF gating enabled          Here are some examples of messages: My HT beacon and raw filter from YAAC entry:?  I confirm that message and show good path on APRS.fi through AG7GK-2  Mesa from AG7GK-2 to AG7GK-7 over RF worked great, ACK received from AG7GK-7 TO AG7GK-2  I sent a message back from the HT AG7GK-7 over RF to AG7GK-2 and received and ACK on the HT  Testing from HT TO pocket packet AG7GK-8 i do not receive an Ack? though the phone sends it:  What issue do I have with my digipeat / igate settings or paths?? Thanks AG7GK Aaron Jones

I've noticed that YAAC isn't rendering water that is contained by shoreline ways as being water. This leaves a lot of water area showing up as white space.
