There are several other platforms, focussed on visualizing radiosonde data, APRS is not the right choice, only because other people also using this. Most of the content is not amateur radido specific, wrong formatted, using invalid callsing or ignoring the APRS protocol specifications (http://www.aprs.org/doc/APRS101.PDF and addendum http://www.aprs.org/aprs12.html).
Hi, while I agree that aprs is not ideal for radiosonde tracking, it exists and the points you make are really (minor) bugs that should be fixed. APRSdroid dos not care about (2) and (3), and mDNS support is still an open feature requests. The latest commit still works fine with APRSdroid, and is likely to work with your iSO app as well. I changed the mDNS part as well, and checked it with dns-sd command line, so it should be fine, but it is not supported yet by APRSdroid anyway, and I don't have an iOS device for testing...
Hi DL9RDZ,
The changes you made in commit b69a726 are the exact same changes I had made in my copy of your repo early July. That would definitely fix it with aprs.fi's IOS App. As far as I am concerned, this issue should now be closed.
Thank you much! Pierre HB9FUF
Thanks, closing this issue.
Hi DL9RDZ & Co,
Thanks for this great app! This is not as such a bug report, not a change suggestion, merely a feedback report on trying to use aprs.fi's IOS App ( https://apps.apple.com/us/app/aprs-fi/id922155038 ) with _rdz_ttgosonde.
dns-sd -R RDZKISSTNC _kiss-tnc._tcp local 14580
, I can simply establish a TCP tunnel from the PC to the ESP32 with NMap.org's ncat ( https://nmap.org/ncat/ ) withncat --listen IP.Addr.Win.PC 14580 --sh-exec "ncat IP.Addr.RDZ.TTGO 14580"
With the above 4 "tricks", aprs.fi IOS app works really good with _rdz_ttgosonde.
I am amazed to see a nearly on-part decoding-sensibility between my Airspy-R2 + IW1GIS's RS41 Tracker ( http://escursioni.altervista.org/Radiosonde/ ) and my _rdz_ttgosonde when both attached to my home vertical 70cm antenna via a 2-way splitter!
Thanks again for this great app & 73s Pierre HB9FUF
