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

From my Xastir install doc device 0 should be: Networked AGWPE (localhost:8000) /Basil Steve McGrane <temporarilyoffline@...> writes:

Core INET is just a comment, I can make it say anything (DRAWS)?

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.

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

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

IT WORKS! (so far) With my makeshift TM-281 cable I was able to receive an APRS message sent from my potatofeng using the APRS-K2 cable plugged into my android. Next I have to send a message from my

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 Nope Granted

> Why do so many of you want a DIN-6 port? ... 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". USB has done a

Yaesu FT817/818, FT7800, 8800 and 8900 are all excellent portable, mobile, fixed station data radios at 1200 and 9600 baud and the DATA DIN connector is the same for all of them. 9600 takes a very

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

I use an Alinco DR-235 MkIII for 220 packets and it's just ok. It is not supported by Hamlib for rig ctrl & doesn't use a mDin6 connector for data (DB9). I use 3 TM-V71a's for packet & they are

The Alincos are fine, but if you want true discriminator output (say for GMSK) a mod should be applied. https://www.k6jm.com/hs-alinco-mods.htm -- John D. Hays Kingston, WA K7VE

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. I

Thanks everyone - updates and corrections have been applied.

I'll pile in positively on Ham Made Parts (no affiliation, just a happy customer.) Nice and easy to deal with. 73, Keating KC4HSI

I believe Ham Made Parts have a cable for this. -- John D. Hays Kingston, WA K7VE
