Closed drtechga closed 1 month ago

drtechga commented 6 months ago

Hello would it be possiable to add USB tnc support to use with APRX as a multimode digirepeater? I am having issues with the bluetooth giving errors and disconnecting from raspberry pi using the rfcomm method.

Thanks, KK4JMW

Hello

If you give me more info about how or what is your goal connecting it , sure thing I can do it.

First: what is APRX ?

Do you need just serial output or else?

drtechga commented 6 months ago

Hello, I building a mobile IGate/Digi, APRX is and advanced Linux software that allows you to Digi between multiple radios in diffferent configurations.

I'm looking for Serial TNC out of the USB cable.

Unless the I-GATE repository could be update to the tt-go beam with GPS support.

1) soon my igate firmware will run with T-beam and gps board (hope soon)

2) what type of serial output do you need from the boards for APRX? Just the packet in a string?

drtechga commented 6 months ago
  1. Great Can't wait
  2. Yes

I see this listed in the I-gate: 2023.10.08 Added Serial Comunication with PinPoint APRS app. Can this be enabled without digi/igate support? That would work as well.

Thanks

richonguzman commented 6 months ago

this can be added or turned on in the "igate_conf.json" file. Please test if this is enough for you and let me know

Was added in Igate version
