Ashley,<br>
<br>
Listing some logical questions/statements ....<br>
Is your signal making it to the Igate? <br>
Is your signal being squashed by other signals arriving at the
local digi? <br>
Keep in mind that handheld radios hear much better than they talk.
<br>
You haven't said if you're using the attached antenna, or an
external antenna. <br>
An attached antenna used indoors would be a poor choice for
competing with other signals, regardless of how well you are
receiving other stations.<br>
Is there a nearby aprs station that can listen for your signal?<br>
<br>
If I was using a handheld radio that is properly configured, but
was not being seen on the network, the first thing I would suspect
is my signal "isn't getting there". I'd try to improve my chances
of being heard by moving into a better location with respect to
the digi I'm trying to access. Try your luck from a well elevated
location with an unobstructed path to the local digi and, if that
works, see what you can do to improve your home situation.<br>

Hi All,
<div class=""> I have a Yaesu VX-8 handheld that I’m trying to
configure to tx my position via APRS. I followed all of the
steps in the radios manual and used the frequencies and
digi-paths specified on <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://aprs.net.au" class="">aprs.net.au</a> website but
yet my station never seems to show up on <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://aprs.fi" class="">aprs.fi</a>.
I’m receiving other stations reports on my handheld so I can
receive ok. If I push the TX-PO button the radio appears to tx
but as I mentioned before, nothing shows up. I have the GPS unit
and have it configured to auto report. My calls sign is
VK4HSA-9. Can anyone offer any suggestions to resolve this
issue?</div>
