Yet Another APRS Client, is a free Java application written by Andrew Pavlin, KA2DDO, for monitoring and contributing to the APRS network. YAAC can be used as a stand-alone APRS client, an APRS RF-Internet gateway (I-Gate), or as a AX.25 digipeater.

The loma pioneer repeater club - lprc provides 2 meter vhf and 440 uhf amateur radio and emergency communication for the san francisco and monterey bay areas from a repeater on mt loma prieta. aprs digipeater available.

DIXPRS is an APRS Internet Gateway and Digipeater software for HAM radio use. It is designed to be portable and platform independent as much as possible. To reach this goal it is written in Python with minimal dependency considering older versions of operating systems and Python.

This project is an APRS iGate for digipeater aboard the ISS. As the ISS pass over the iGate location, the TNC decoded the audio tones and creates data packets the Raspberry Pi can receive.

APRS4R Digipeater configuration notes by K6DBG

This resource provides a discussion group platform for amateur radio operators interested in APRS within Argentina. It facilitates technical discussions, sharing of operational experiences, and coordination among users of the Automatic Packet Reporting System in the region. The group serves as a central point for exchanging information on local digipeater networks, IGate deployments, and mobile tracking applications, covering both hardware and software aspects relevant to APRS implementation. The forum enables members to post questions, offer solutions, and disseminate news related to APRS activities specific to Argentina, fostering a community-driven approach to problem-solving and knowledge transfer. It supports the collaborative development and maintenance of the APRS infrastructure, allowing for real-time interaction on topics such as frequency usage, network topology, and integration with other amateur radio services.

Demonstrates the practical application of APRS (Automatic Packet Reporting System) through the lens of HB9PVI's activities in Switzerland. It covers the system's core function of reporting geographical positions and telemetry data from various objects, including mobile stations, aircraft, and the ISS, distributed via packet radio and internet gateways. The resource highlights the routing paradigm shift introduced in April 2005, specifically the recommendation to use _WIDE1-1_ instead of RELAY and WIDE for digipeating to reduce duplicate packets. The page presents real-time maps displaying the positions of amateur radio stations in Switzerland and around Bern, updated every few minutes. It details specific callsigns like _HB9BA-2_ (HB9PVI's home QTH), _HB9BA-8_ (a weather station), and _HB9BA-4_ (a WIDE digipeater on Weissenstein mountain), providing context for their roles within the local APRS network. Links to track HB9PVI's mobile operations (_HB9PVI-9_) and handheld devices (_HB9PVI-15_, _HB9PVI-7_) are also provided. Furthermore, the resource curates a list of APRS software options for various operating systems, including _JavAPRS_ for Europe, _UI-view_, and _X-Astir_ for Linux, alongside digipeater/IGATE software like _DiXPRS_. It also offers downloadable APRS information, including a PDF article by HB9PVI and HE9ZGN, and a PowerPoint presentation in German, making it a repository of practical and historical APRS data.

A project to turn a Raspberry Pi into a very versatile tracker, digipeater and an iGate

**APRS TX I-Gate with APRX and the Universal Radio Controller** This project explores the creation of an APRS TX I-Gate to improve message delivery in amateur radio communications. Initial experiments involved configuring a picoAPRS v4 and later a G1LRO Universal Radio Controller (URC) with a Quansheng UV-K5 as digipeaters. While both setups successfully retransmitted signals, they failed to receive incoming APRS messages. To address this, a Raspberry Pi Zero running Debian and APRX-2.9 was repurposed to provide network connectivity, transforming the URC into an effective TX I-Gate for seamless APRS message handling.

The resource details the use of LoRa for AX.25 packet radio and APRS, focusing on practical implementation. It specifies UK LoRa APRS frequency and modulation settings: **439.9125 MHz**, 125kHz bandwidth, SF12, and CR 4/5. The content provides a mini how-to for setting up an iGate using VS Code and _Platformio IDE_, with specific instructions for a Lilygo LoRa32 V2.1_1.6 board, including configuration for Wi-Fi, beaconing, and APRS-IS passcode. It also covers tracker setup using a Lilygo T-Beam Supreme, detailing firmware flashing and configuration for mobile operation. The guide differentiates LoRa APRS from traditional connected-mode packet radio, explaining why common LoRa APRS firmware is unsuitable for full AX.25 packet due to its TNC2-style payload structure. It explores alternative solutions for true LoRa packet radio, such as using an _RNode_ TNC or Raspberry Pi LoRa TNCs, and provides commands for RNode firmware installation and configuration for serial KISS operation. The resource also touches upon licensing requirements for unattended Digipeaters in the UK, noting the need for ETCC coordination and MB7Uxx callsigns.

Demonstrates firmware for microcontrollers like the _ESP32_ to implement a LoRa APRS iGate and Digipeater. This project leverages LoRa for packet radio communication, allowing amateur radio operators to bridge the gap between LoRa-enabled APRS stations and the global APRS-IS network via WiFi. It details the setup for both iGate and Digipeater modes, including features like transmitting APRS-IS packets over LoRa to local stations and a 30-second buffer in digipeater mode to prevent packet storms. This firmware offers an Ultra Eco Mode, achieving current consumption between **7mA** and **13mA**, making it suitable for remote, battery-powered deployments. The integrated WebUI simplifies configuration and management, providing an accessible interface for hams to deploy and maintain their LoRa APRS infrastructure. It supports sending weather telemetry packets and adheres to APRS protocols, released under the GPL-3.0 license.
