I'm in the middle of nowhere, APRS wise.

Hi. Michael,

I don't see any reception there, but everything else looks perfect, assuming you're
using an AIOC cable (cm108).

Volume up on the rig?  can you "hear" packets on 144.390 otherwise, in your area?
Do you have an aprs rig that can send a packet to see if it's listening?

Outdoor antenna?

cool,
-craig

I appear to be in an APRS desert, though you'd think someone would drive by.  I don't yet have a radio that can send aprs.  I let it run overnight and this morning, the radio was stuck on transmit.  I didn't have time to debug so I just turned it off.  I need to get some donuts for the wires, but the radio is on an external antenna several feet away.
