[OZAPRS] Silly UIView question :)

[Rendrag]

Howdy Folks,

So I've finally shifted into the ACT, about 3km from work (makes suuuch a
difference to the morning commute!), into a nice big house with a HUGE
(8-car) garage, and setup my workshop, so I can get back to playing :)

Setup all my radio gear, plugged my MFJ1270 into my FT8100, and connected
one of the serial ports (I've got a nice 4-port stallion board) into the
back of the MFJ, and installed UIView32.  Setup the Comms settings,
downloaded a .au map, and off it went showing stations on the map, happy
as
larry.

Right, I thought, let's ssh into the Igate, and make sure my packets are
making it out onto RF..  No go!  When I hit 'send beacon', it's keying up
the transceiver, so it's definitely transmitting..  I've got clear line of
sight to the WIDE on black mountain, and I'm hearing packets from the
Igate
(which is running 500mW, since it's got clear line one of sight to the
WIDE
also), so you'd think I could get into either of them on 50W..

Hoping I've just missed some simple setting in uiview - I've got my
unproto
port set to 1, and unproto string set to APRS,WIDE3-3.. Is there something
else I should be setting up?

Thanks,

Damien

We danced among the lightning bolts,
  and tore the world asunder
