Re: 2m rig Update
So far I can receive only.
I'm getting a little screwed up in the pin labeling and what side of the cable I'm on.
What I have so far:
Cable from DRAWS w/end cut reveals
Pin 6 Green
Pin 5 Black
Pin 4

Re: 2m rig Update
Your device 0 looks incorrect. Core servers would be something like noam.aprs2.net
The direwolf would be localhost:8000 or 8001 depending on protocol.

Re: 2m rig Update
I guessed at those two and they are both "UP" and I even got a CLI output on the direwolf console... now to get them to do anything... (my map is blank, even after my self-beaconing)
Still running

Re: 2m rig Update
Start XASTIR and go into interfaces, then configure an AGW or KISS over TCP connection. You can also configure a GPSD interface to localhost for position reports from the integrated GPS.

Al,
A very reasonable question. The mini DIN-6 configuration is the amateur radio version of an analog radio interface. It contains key signals. PTT (to radio), COR (from Radio), AF Audio Out (from

Re: Good 2m rig?
Compared to what? DB-15, DB-9? not really.
Nope. I would rather have a mDin6 to mDin6 cable that goes from my DRAWS
Hat to the radio. Cheap cable and supported by many radios.
Nope

Granted

I totally agree with you. I don't really "want" a din-6, but the DRAWS uses it (because the radios use it), so that's what I "need".

Re: Good 2m rig?
Not so much as a reply , but a genuine question.
Why do so many of you want a DIN-6 port? Technology-wise, it's almost 50 years old. It's huge. If you could , wouldn't you rather have a 2-Meter rig

Re: Good 2m rig?
The Alincos are fine, but if you want true discriminator output (say for GMSK) a mod should be applied.

Re: Good 2m rig?
I've had good luck with the Alinco DR135's. They're only $165 but are 2m only. You do have to deal with the DB-9 data port.
I've used them for APRS digipeating and as AllstarLink simplex nodes.
