[OZAPRS] Status of VK2AMW-4 ?

[Ian Mills]

 Hi Peter,

Thanks for the update. I agree that it appears deaf as it doesn't always
hear me even though I have line of site from my home on the hill at
Gerroa. I also think it may not be setup correctly on TX (deviation?) as
my D700 and D7 are rarely able to decode a position even though I get
nearly full strength signal from it. Maybe you want to set it up
temporarily from my place until the new site owner is contacted?

Cheers
Ian

G'day,

As Geoff has mentioned, AMW-1 has yet to be upgraded to the new N-n and as
such, it is not compatible with the ident path being used in AMW-4, to
overcome this I have temporarily changed the ident path to one that should
work.
It has been quite successfully digi'ing my mobile into the I-gate, I am
using a path of WIDE1-1,WIDE2-2.

I did however note today that it seemed a bit 'deaf' when I was mobile
this morning, it was passing traffic from AMW-1, but seemed to not 'hear'
me.  I will check my set-up before I hit the panic buttons on the digi...

The link from AMW-4 into RGI-1 seems to be nonexistent at the moment so we
will be relying on AMW-1 to get the info into the APRS-IS system.  Once we
get it moved into the proposed new site, the coverage will increase
dramatically and it will have a clear path into RGI-1 and AMW-1.  But with
the site owner in QLD at the moment, getting a hold of him is proving
quite a challenge.
