    Another great video. Every video, I learn so much. I never had any interest in 2M, but you just come up with cooler and cooler stuff to do.
    Any chance you can do a "getting started with 2M" video? Like how you actually talk on 2M, what all you can do on 2M, of course it can just be links to your videos.

    Jason could you or Craig show how to install it like you are showing it. I have it loaded from his digipi on a pi 2 zero W. Your setup isn’t script / GUI based like his. Wondering if I can do an install on top of your BAP / 73 Linux.

    Is the MPAD service still working? All of my APRS messages timeout without even a single ACK. 🤔

    This is a very interesting tool. I tried sending a couple of requests via my FT-5D but have not gotten any responses back. Is there anything one needs to do before using it via RF?

    • @KM4ACK
      @KM4ACK  Рік тому +1

      shouldn't need to do anything. Educated guess says your aren't being heard by a digi. Is your HT showing up on aprs.fi? If not, your HT isn't being heard.
