[OZAPRS] HF APRS

[Robert Thirkettle]

Hi All
I will change the path my end to gate, wide. Does VK digi's not support
wide-n I am trying to get every body here to use that as it keeps the
packets as short as possible. This is a advantage with HF APRS I also
want to use a Tigertronics tracker as it supports compressed format.

Gents,

This is great to see. I didn't think that VK would see much ZL traffic
on 40mtrs.

One point though.... The path of ZL3RX is incorrect, it should be;

APRS via GATE,WIDE

As per the APRS HF specs and our local (VK) VHF gating requirements.

Cheers

Hi Robert,

I had similar results here in VK4. I had the 40Mtr gateway running over
night and copied packets from you as well.

Below are some extracted from a log file....

Hi ALL
My APRS gateway is up and running I saw 1 VK4 station this morning. I
received about 5 packets from it sorry I don't remember the call. If you
want your packets on to our VHF network you need to put wide-n after
gate in the path. I suggest wide3-3 as a good start.
