Hi Kelly,

What radio?  what interface?

Can you start "APRS Digipeater", wait exactly 8 seconds and see if it goes into transmit for a moment?

Line 35: Warning - IGFILTER is a rarely needed expert level feature.
If you don't have a special situation and a good understanding of

The default behavior is appropriate for most situations.

i am using a yaesu ft 4xr.

[Craig]

ok, yaesu - and how do you connect the Yaesu to the DigiPi?  Digirig Mobile?  other?


A very basic transmit test is to use these direwolf switches to test ptt engagement.

Start then stop APRS TNC/igate, then run in the Shell (password = raspberry);

direwolf -c /run/direwolf.tnc.conf  -x p
