Do you have to include a lat/long? I am thinking about building a portable digipeater to repeat my APRS signal from my handheld when camping. I’d leave the digipeater at the campsite and take an HT on hikes.
For a portable setup like that, it may be worth picking up a Raspberry Pi Zero W. They seem to be a bit easier to get now. It's been around two hours now and PiShop hasn't sold out yet rpilocator.com/?country=US&cat=PIZERO
Can you help me with the PTT setup in de conf for a Icom 7300 without Hamlib the com is 6 (usb is connected) OS = windows . now i have PTT COM6 DTR (i try rts, -rts etc) USB poort is COM6 115200 PS: other applications like FT8 are working fine. radio setup seems to be correct?
Hi, Can I use this software with a very old radio that does not have any control interface? I made a board with a couple of isolation audio transformers and an optocoupler to activate the ptt with the serial port (can be used with a usb to RS232 adaptor) but I don't know if that can work with this software and how to configure it. Thanks. Regards.
Where did you get your din cable to the digirig for the tyt 9000d? Also what cable are you using from the digirig to the raspberry? I am new to all this and have a tyt 9000d and the din cable to install into it soon just want to make sure to get the right cables from the radio to the raspberry.
I have build many digipeaters with different audio interfaces. I use a GPS for position instead of entering the position. Then wherever I drop it I know the location.
There is no single command, but there are a number of simple steps to do this though. This guide should get you going: www.f4fxl.org/start-direwolf-at-boot-the-systemd-way/
any idea why i'm getting this message Digipeater WIDE2 (probably N5LUY-10) audio level = 200(73/70) _||||____ Audio input level is too high. Reduce so most stations are around 50.

Great idea! Nope, it's not required and we're actually not using it on our digipeater either.

Everything went well until hamlib had successfully installed. There were no files visible such as direwolf.conf visible following the ls command.
Hi, what’s the command I can use to make Direwolf automatically start on a power reboot?

I'm missing something. I've reinstalled Direwolf several times but I still get this error "-bash: direwolf: command not found" What am I doing wrong?
Hi Jerry. What are you running this on? Raspberry Pi OS or something else?
Also, are you running the script from the GitHub page?
Yeah still won't load Direwolf
jerry@raspberrypi:~ $ direwolf -c direwolf.ic705.conf
-bash: direwolf: command not found
jerry@raspberrypi:~ $
Ah, I see. Thank you for the additional info. Seems to be a permission issue
Can you do me a favor and run this command and copy and paste what you get:

That is one expensive digipeater….. a 705
That is true! 😂 Great for testing and looks good on video 🙂

You'll want to adjust the audio levels a little. Either via the radio or the controls in the operating system

you can find out the device by running ls -l /dev/serial/by-id/
Cheers!
