    My portable digipeaters are a little bigger. I use a radio like the TH-V71 or similar for the longer range is needed. Thank you for sharing yours.

    • @KM4ACK
      @KM4ACK  11 місяців тому

      The TH-V71 is a great choice for a digi :-)

    Thanks for another great video. When we’re out and no digipeater or igate around, we use our Kenwood D72, Mobilinkd TNC4 (or 3) and our iPhone (that’s got a data connection). This takes all signals from our group and gates them.

    Much Grass, sir. Very nice 'tie up the loose ends' of the last video. Now to toss it all together for a local EmComm deployment. I appreciate the effort you put forth for these videos.

    Fantastic kit Jason. I will save it for later to help me build my own. Did you buy or build that cable adaptor for the power bank to 12v barrel connector?

    @km4ack while you are on the topic of APRS, could you do a quick video on settings when using a set up like this? Such as wide 1-1 and such. Love the videos and your quick to the point style!

    Just a thought... is the gps a vital part of a fill in digipeater... if not markqvist's MicroDigi is a cool project... tested a while ago. Seems to work fine.
    Would be much less powerhungry

    • @KM4ACK
      @KM4ACK  11 місяців тому

      You could avoid the GPS assuming you update the lat/long in the config file. I just prefer having the GPS so it will update the location automatically.

    Good Morning Jason, I have gathered all of the parts/pieces to do this build BUT, I have a serious question for you: Have you tried to emulate this build utilizing the Orange Pi 2W board with their expansion board? I have everything to copy the build except I have the Orange Pi version of the boards rather than the Raspberry boards...is there any reason that the Orange Pi will not work in the place of the RP? I am going to go forth with the build and let you know what I find out unless you have firsthand experience that suggests otherwise. I look forward to your response and experience Bro...Thanks!! 73 Danny NF4J

    • @KM4ACK

      I do not have any experience with the Orange Pi but in theory, it should work.

    Once the RaspberryPi powers on, how can I get Direwolf to wait for DigiRig and GPS input before loading?
    Jason mentioned he’d baked this cool functionality into his Pi build, but I wasn’t sure how it’s done.

    • @KM4ACK
      @KM4ACK  11 місяців тому +1

      It was a one off script that I wrote to make it all happen.

    Jason, How can I find out is there is a APRS node in my area? Not sure that is what they are called.

    • @KM4ACK
      @KM4ACK  10 місяців тому

      Take a look at your area on aprs.fi It's not always easy to spot them but if you hover over objects, it will tell you the digi path it took to get into the system.

    Nice video, have you done any testing on your J-pole ?

      A bit but more in a “does it work” kinda way. Nothing scientific.
