configuration validation

[Jon Glauser]

hello all! I'm helping with a club repeater site where we have APRS on 2 bands:

-2m APRS via ninoTNC

-433 Lora APRS via Heltec device

I want each to 2-way igate to APRS-IS

I want each to crossband digi each other

attached is part of my config file. I think I have everything right, but I'm not sure about the igate-group setting. Any feedback on if this is right?

hi - 

I do not use igate-group and am able to perform crossband pretty close to what you are wanting to do.

         source         N1SU-4
         relay-type     digipeated

     <source>
         source         APRSIS
         relay-type     third-party
     </source>
 </digipeater>

I have some extra parameters in each <digipeater> section (delay, filter, etc.) but you get the idea.  What i'm doing may be the incorrect approach but it does exactly what I want and probably will do what you're wanting to do.  Note that I use directonly for 2m->440 as personal preference.

hope this helps.
