Dire Wolf is a software "soundcard" AX.25 packet modem/TNC and APRS encoder/decoder. It can be used stand-alone to observe APRS traffic, as a tracker, digipeater, APRStt gateway, or Internet Gateway (IGate).

Direwolf v1.6 truncates Source SSID when IS to TX #408

Open joshbradfield opened 2 years ago

joshbradfield commented 2 years ago

When forwarding from the internet (IG) to radio (TX), any text following a hyphen "-" in the "source" call sign is dropped. e.g. WHO-IS becomes WHO

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Setup direwolf as an RX/TX IGATE
  2. From a message capable APRS device emit a beacon (so direwolf knows the device is in range)
  3. From the same device emit a "WHO-IS" request/message

Expected Result

Actual Result

Example

WHO-IS request sent from ZL1JSH-9 via ZL1JSH-10,

No, we have not heard WHO over the radio.

Thank you for reporting this problem. The code was written, expecting only a numeric SSID. This is an unusual, but perfectly valid case. The message addressee, and therefore the sender of a reply, does not have the same restriction as the AX.25 addresses.

Yes, I should probably update this to make it clear that

Issue only applicable for non-numeric SSIDs

Otherwise, very much enjoying using direwolf :)
