What is DigiPi's digipeater path?  Is it Wide1-1, Wide2-2?  Can it be modified and how?

Hi Randall,

DigiPi "APRS Digipeater" digipeats all traffic with WIDE1-1 in the path.  You can
add WIDE2-1 (or anything) in direwolf.digipeater.conf.   I would encourage you
to checkout the Direwolf User Guide for more info and best practices.

best,

Can you give us an example of that text line if you want to add 2-1. I round line to hear everything that what the digipeater hears.

Out of morbid fascination, I asked AI this question, and this looks correct, but
I would again encourage you to refer to the Direwolf User Guide for more info.


The standard Direwolf configuration line to enable digipeating for WIDE1-1 and WIDE2-1 paths is:

DIGIPEAT 0 0 ^WIDE[3-7]-[1-7]$|^TEST$ ^WIDE-$ TRACE

This line instructs Direwolf to repeat packets that match the regex pattern ^WIDE[3-7]-[1-7]$ (which includes WIDE1-1 and WIDE2-1) or ^TEST$.  The ^WIDE-$ pattern is often included to handle variations, and TRACE enables logging of the digipeating action. 



cool,
