In order to try to get people with similar interests collected together in one place, we now have the "SAR_APRS" yahoo group. We intend to keep the focus on...
I am trying to get Xastir to work with Tracker2 in KISS mode. If I set up a Serial Kiss TNC, it doesn't look like the Tracker2 goes to Kiss mode. If I force...
Added the AUTOBAUD command. When AUTOBAUD is on, the tracker will detect baud rate mismatches on the main serial port, and will try to pick the correct baud...
The high level "S overlay" digipeaters should respond to WIDE1-1 and WIDE2-2 and WIDE2-1 and "SSn-N" (NCAn-N in Northern California and SCAn-N in Southern...
Looking at the schematic for OT2-ProtoC I find that the command OUTPUT1 is supposed to control U2 pin-1. The OTWINCFG program incorrectly refers to that as...
Got a basic command processor going... you can send a message to the T2, and use the 'set' command to set most of the on/off parameters. The syntax is SET...
I was asked today about remote commands and it reminded me that I needed to update my own documentation. I would suggest that perhaps these next few lines...
I just finished testing my new OT Tracker2 ProtoC board and its working 100%. - Works as local tnc for Ui-View with KISS - Does APRS Wide-n digi - RF Remote...
I think I'm going to do a small run of another board revision to test out a few ideas, including the motion sensor. I'm also looking at adding another switch...
New firmware's up. This version has improved buffer handling, and might fix the intermittent RX lockup problem. It also has some extra diagnostics to try to...
Scott, would it be possible to add 9600 baud packets to the Tracker 2? Even if I had to add an external modem, having the ability to do 9600 baud APRS would...
I just noticed some waypoints from the OT2 (ProtoC) are not displayed on the AvMap G4T. In particular waypoints that only have one decimal in Lat/Lon are not...
Just a quick update on the RX lockup situation... there's a glitch in the buffer logic that's sometimes causing it to think the buffer is full when it's not,...
Is there a method to dump GPRMC/GPGGA sentences to the computer when using both Tracker2 serial ports? Any of these perhaps: *) Send the NMEA strings when the...
Will there be NSR support in the Tracker2 digi code? http://www.aprs-is.net/nosource_routing.htm Also, I'd love to help beta test if you need someone to work...
Been experimenting with a MX614 demod chip. Have found that it will decode a RF signal level that is about 5 dB lower than the best I could get with the 2211....
I noticed that Scott (N1VG) mentioned that the T2 uses a 100k resistor in lieu of the OpenTracker39;s 220k to get a higher level of audio output. As I'm...
I realize I'm falling behind on answering emails, but I've been busy and today I'm headed out of town for a day or so, up to Sacramento. I'll get caught up...
I mentioned this in the OpenTracker group a couple of days ago... I picked up some piezoelectric vibration sensors, and they seem to work pretty well. I'm...
Several bug fixes. Also, the STATUS command has been renamed to INFO, and STATUS is back to being the status text interval like it used to be before I had...
Has anyone noticed with the lastest OT2 firmware a "Database Error" comming up on Garmin units when in standard two-way NMEA mode? I have a 176c that up until...
Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I reflashed the T2 with latest firmware, blanked the config in the process. I configured config 1 with a fixed position, then...
Hi all, got my ot2s in the post saturday afternoon. A couple of hours for assembly and voila! It is a very well arranged kit, for it worked as soon as I...
Hi Gang-- I'm new to the beta testers. I'm trying to set up a basic WIDE1-1 fill- in digi using the T2-135. I'm a bit confused on the parms, can someone ...
I've added a few items to my store that are particularly useful for the T2-135. There's a F-M gender changer, which doesn't really change the gender, but if...
In case I didn't mention this already, I've got some shorter (3/16") 4-40 screws available in case anyone's having trouble with the case screws shorting...
Sorry for the long delay - things have been a little hectic. This version includes changes for the Proto C boards. Also added the MAXRANGE command, to limit...
So far so good. Scott, You need to add the socket for U7 on the parts list. Will you be brining any enclosures to DCC? Can't wait for the 1-wire stuff to...
