A data converter for the Tandy WM918 weather station. The Weather APRS data converter project aims to create an interface to interpret data from the popular Tandy WM918 weather station and format it for transmission over packet radio. The South East Radio Group in South Australia has established a network of these weather stations to provide amateurs with regularly updated weather data. However, the WM918's data output is not structured for APRS weather reporting. This project describes a solution using a PIC microcontroller to convert the WM918 data into APRS-compatible strings that can be sent as beacons or connected packets. The interface offers features like position/positionless data, connected/beacon modes, and metric/imperial units. The goal is to create an interconnected weather reporting system for amateur radio operators -

**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. -

Super Simple APRS Position Reporter. This project idea has been in response to the more hardware heavy Raspberry Pi projects that involve extra TNC hardware, additional sound cards, and custom cabling. This APRS position reporter is done using a Raspberry Pi B+, USB GPS receiver, Baofeng UV-5R, and a mono 3.5mm audio cable between the Pi and HT. -
The guide outlines necessary components, including a 2m FM analog radio, USB audio adapter, and Raspberry Pi. Building a cable to connect these elements is assumed, as is knowledge of Raspberry Pi OS installation. -

This blog post documents the author's journey building an APRS micromodem for amateur radio applications. Using an open-source design by LY2EN, the author assembled a cost-effective Terminal Node Controller (TNC) with SMD components, an Arduino Nano, and a JDY-31 Bluetooth module. The construction process included PCB fabrication, careful component soldering, microcontroller programming, and Bluetooth configuration. A custom 3D-printed case protected the completed device. Field testing in Romania showed the device functioned with a Baofeng UV-5R radio, though antenna limitations affected performance. The entire project demonstrates an affordable DIY alternative to commercial APRS trackers. -
he LoRa-APRS-iGate was developed in cooperation with the Austrian HAM Radio Association. With this software and the LoRa GW Shield, devices transmitting on LoRa, frequency 433 MHz can be integrated into the APRS network. The transmitter can then be displayed on the website https://aprs.fi. -
