<div>Jack, that was my thinking on this. Hopefully

<div>It would be good to know if any others are
receiving the WXSVR-AU reports via RF. As I

<div>G'day Pete,</div>

</div>
<div>Since the reply messages are being
generated (as evidenced by <a
href="http://aprs.fi" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">aprs.fi</a>) -
it seems WXSVR-AU is functioning with no
issues. From a quick lookup on that site
I notice you're getting heard by
VK3RSA-1, perhaps this iGate is
configured to prevent TXing those
particular messages?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Not very conclusive but I thought I'd
chime in with my hypothesis.</div>

<div dir="ltr">G'day everyone.

<div>I'm new to this list and the APRS
system in general.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Question if I may:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Does anyone know if there is a
technical reason why I am not
receiving back to my QTH, messages
from WXSVR-AU ? In other words, is
there a problem with that service?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Explanation -- I have APRSIS32
setup on my Win 8.1 PC using
Direwolf v1.6 via my 2M set. I have
been able to send RF messages to
WXBOT and receive a reply back.
Yesterday I sent out a "CQ" and got
a reply from a US station. So I know
that my system is working. But when
I send a message to the WXSVR-AU
server, with a request like "today",
I can see that a reply message was
returned, by looking on <a
href="http://aprs.fi"
target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">aprs.fi</a>
in the messages section, but I have
yet to receive a reply back via RF.
I have tried WXSVR-AU for a couple
of days now with no success.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My QTH station is VK3YPE-15 if
anyone wants to send a "Gday". I
will be playing with APRS for a few
days to see how this goes.</div>
