About APRS TX
APRS TX allows licensed Ham Radio operators to beacon their position details to the APRS-IS network using the internet.
The following information is sent in each position packet:
* Latitude
* Longitude
* Speed
* Altitude
* Bearing
* Beacon message (22 characters max)
* APRS Symbol
Now includes messaging between APRS stations.
Within the app you will need to specify your Callsign and Passcode. Pass codes are only available to licensed Ham Radio operators.
Passcodes can be generated here: www.dstarcomms.com/aprs
Within the app you may change the following information:
* Callsign
* Passcode
* APRS-IS Server URL
* Beacon Message
* Beacon Time Interval
* APRS Symbol for choosing which icon will be displayed on APRS maps.
You may also use this app on iPad devices but a continuous location will be required, normally through GSM or WiFi.
Please note: This app uses the GPS feature of your device. Continued use of this app may drain the device battery sooner.
Please email matt@dstarcomms.com if you have any feature requests or bug issues. If you leave feedback reporting an issue I have no way of communicating with you to resolve the issue.
