Is there anyway to see if the GPS data is getting to the XTrack? What does the LED on the XTrack signify? ... Corby Krick K0SKW - Technician Omaha, Nebraska...
Folks I was advised by fellow hams when hooking up a radio spkr out to a TNC audio in that I should put a 10 ohm resister from the spkr out to ground and, I...
Folks So I've got TNC-X working quite nicely on 144.390 transmitting and receiving using a serial cable and the TXTEXT program. And when I run HyperTerminal...
... Ah, I'm told an another list that the KISS type of TNCs won't work with software such as Airmail and Paclink because they require more sophisticated TNCs....
Tony, the values as supplied in the kit are good when connecting to the speaker jack of an HT or mobile rig. I found however that 100 Ohms was too low when...
Tony, KISS TNCs like the TNC-X are not supported by Airmail but Paclink AGW works like a champ with KISS Mode. I have used my TNC-X for several EMCOMM /...
Tony: I've been trying to track this down with experiments here. My experimental set up involved using a TNC-X with the case top off to try to maximize any RF...
Some software does not yet support the KISS protocol. I'm told that Airmail is one of these. However, I also heard at Dayton that Airmail now has KISS listed...
As someone said before, the icons the XTrack sends aren't correct. My K0SKW-9 should be showing up as a car (symbol /> ) but it isn't. Look at the findu data,...
Your current beacon is in MIC-E. Can you change it back to human readable format so we can see what icon identifier is being inserted into the packet? Jason...
I changed a setting, the only setting that has to do with Mic-E, and that's the message, I set it to 0, thinking that would shut it off but it just changes the...
The Icon must be entered in XTrack as a hexadecimal number. So if you want a car, enter 3E (the hexadecimal equivilent of the decimal 62, which is the ASCII...
John, While using Hyperteminal on my XTrack, I seem to get a 2 unit shift on the icon entries.. ie: entering 4A will return 2A into the eeprom, so to get 4A, I...
Shawn: I think you mean entering 2a will result in 4A being entered to the EEPROM. This almost certainly occurs because you are entering "2a" instead of "2A"....
... Not without a significant redesign. Currently XTrack has to pay attention to 3 data streams because it is preserving the functions of TNC-X while still...
This seems to tell me another thing, but I don't know if it's true... Sounds like I can't set up the TNC-X with my APRS program (Xastir) and have the APRS...
There are two solutions here: 1. Hook the GPS directly to the computer and let the computer handle the position beaconing. I usually recommend this to people...
Just wondering if there's anyone out there who's had any luck getting the TNC-x up and running with USB under Linux with kernels newer than the one mentioned...
... As indicated in a previous email I have the TNC-X and TXTest working quite nicely with the serial port. ... Yes, the PTT red light goes on in the TNC. ... ...
... My fellow hams here explained that I need the resisters if I'm hooking up the TNC-X to the speaker jack of standard radios. So the radio sees something...
Can someone provide a set of parameters that works on the X-digi board as a digipeater? I've tried quite a few combinations, and a previous post by others...
hello, i'm from morocco, and i'm not verry well in english language, but i'm verry interrested in APRS (TNC-x). In Doc1( PIC-et Radio: How to Send AX.25 UI...
Hi Lee, I'm curious as to how you got it working - did you have to recompile the ftdi driver? I am just about to do that to add the Coastal Chipworks' custom...
