Fill-In configuration

[LA5PPA]

Hi, according to the manual page 14 it is possible to configure APRX
as a Fill-In digi so that it only digipeat WIDE1-1, if something else
comes up first like WIDE3-3 it will not digipeat.

I have test this on version: aprx_2.03test3.452-1_i386.deb5 but
it's not operating as a Fill-In, it digipeats everything

Any tips on "How to"

Well, that looks good to me. Have you tried it with other versions of the software?

No, but I can try one of the older versions and see if it works there

Hi....

Aprx, in this configuration, repeats all and only the packets, listening directly, so even wide7-7 WIDE4-4, etc. ...
Do not repeat frames that are passed through another digipeater.
To configure aprx as fill-in digipeater only repeats WIDE1-1, put maxreq and maxdone = 1,  or use the regex-filter and put all the possibilities of wide you do not want to pass. wide7-7 wide7-6 ...... wide6-6 wide6-5 .... etc.  

<source>
source     $mycall
relay-type directonly

<wide>

keys WIDE

maxreq 1

maxdone 1

<\wide>

</source>

 Try this configuration and let us know......

Thanks for the tips but... sorry It's not working, still digipeating

An update....
Been doing a lot of testing today trying to solve my problem getting
APRX to work as a Fill-In, only digipeating WIDE1-1 package

Honestly I dont think APRX work this way at all but it will digipeat
on anything as the first station if no one else is digipeating the
same package within the viscouse time
Based on the Relay-type directonly is will only digipeat if it receive
a clean path from any statio without the * (star) in the path.
If the received path contain a *, then it is not directonly but via
another digipeater and APRX will not digipeate

relay-type directonly

Is my observation correct ?

[Angelo Rossi]

Sure it is.
In this configuration only digipeats frames without star (*), and then frames that have not passed through another digipeater.
But, in my previous post I had written it. 

Have you tried to set maxdone and maxreq =1 , to digipeat only wide1-1???

Hi, as I confirmed earlier, yes I tried that but it's not working

I tested the setting below on version aprx_2.01.422-1_i386 and
aprx_2.03test3.452-1_i386

<source>
source $mycall
relay-type directonly
<wide>
keys WIDE
maxreq 1
maxdone 1

</wide>

ok, this looks better :)

Added the following into the first <source> section and now it will
only digipeat on WIDE1-1

regex-filter destination WIDE3-3|WIDE3-2|WIDE3-1|WIDE2-2|WIDE2-1

Even if you use this filter it will Igate the station but not digipeat
so... I'm happy
(TX of messages is working)

Thank you Angelo

Is there a ghost somewhere in this software?
After a couple of hours testing is suddenly started to digipeat on my
-8 again with WIDE3-3 settings
Nothing is changes, config the same...
