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.

This page provides a detailed instructions on how to setup the KX3 transceiver with the Win-Test software. How to configure the contest logging software Win-Test to be use with the Elecraft KX3 transceiver for CW. Using only the dedicated Elecraft KXUSB cable between the radio and the computer, enabling to send CAT commands and pre recorded CW messages with the F1 to F7 keys.
