Test New Tool - APRS Code Recovery
by lleachii＠aol.com 24 Jun '15

24 Jun '15

All, I've added a new tool that I'd like you to test. This web application should provide the registration code required by APRS software suites. In order to use it, you must browse to: http://kb3vwg-010.ampr.org/tools/aprscode or http://44.60.44.10/tools/aprscode If you're on AMPRNet, you should be able to enter the callsign and look up the registration code. If you access it from outside of AMPRNet, you will be prompted for an access code (1234). Please let me know how it works 73, KB3VWG

New services idea.

First, Lynwood thanks for sharing PHP code snippet. Does anyone know much about google maps? More than 15 years ago a younger local ham friend of mine wrote some web based interactive tools for wireless link planning. Maybe you have run into them: http://n9zia.ampr.org/ This isn't presently on 44-net. I have just been using the ampr dns to give it a hostname that has been pointing to my home cable modem for a long time now. They run horribly slow (same computer for 15 years and slow upload speed) I'd love to see these tools freshened up a bit to use PHP, and possibly integrate google maps. Neither the original author, Joe N9ZIA or myself really have a lot of experience with either. But we are both surprised someone hasn't already done this. Just throwing the idea out there for anyone who would like a project, the code is open under GPL. The tools help promote modern RF network planning. After a rewrite perhaps they could be hosted on a 44 IP, and put a paypal please donate nag screen if you come in from a commercial IP. The paypal proceeds can go to helping ARDC with Brian's ok.

Hi all, Just joining the list... I applied for a 44net subnet last week and am beginning the steps to do something cool and interesting with this. I'm a new ham as of April 2013 (VE5EIS) and work on both VHF/UHF and the HF bands. I also am involved with a hobby project in Canada called the Metanetwork, where we link disparate networks together and learn about networking, route advertising, and so on. The project has gotten me to learn about all sorts of useful networking things such as using OpenVPN and deploying IPv6. My routers and my most interesting computers run Linux or BSD. I'm hoping to learn more about packet radio and deploy some RF hops on my subnet. I have some ideas of some useful projects that could be done, e.g. UUCP over RF for email links between sites that don't have Internet or telephone connectivity. At this point I'm working on getting either a tunnel or permission to set up BGP advertising for my subnet, and then it'll be time to figure out what to do with this project. I'm hoping to have a lot of fun with it and learn from you guys - see what you're doing, grab some great ideas, maybe leverage them with some of my own experience and knowledge. Thanks, Jim VE5EIS Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada DO70

The solution is in section 3.3.2 of the user guide : DMZ Host http://www.draytek.co.uk/support/downloads Another option is is to put the modem in a Bridge Mode see page 35.

Draytek Vigor 2710Vn

Hi all, Does anyone know if a Draytek Vigor 2710Vn ADSL router can do IPENCAP (Protocol 4) so that I can use it in my AMPRnet GATEWAY? I can't make it work, although my GATEWAY works OK when I use a TP-Link WR1043ND Broadband Router with DD-WRT Firmware! -- 73 de Demetre - SV1UY e-mail: demetre.sv1uy(a)gmail.com Radio e-mail: sv1uy(a)winlink.org AMPRnet e-mail: sv1uy(a)sv1uy.ampr.org PACKET mail: SV1UY(a)SV1UY.ATH.GRC.EU WEB: http://www.qsl.net/sv1uy
