¿Por qué no Ø?
I know you can use a hotspot running Pi-Star to relay position reports and messages send over DMR/YSF/D-Star to aprs.fi, but does anyone know of a way to get that information straight from the Pi when you don't have internet?
I'm working on a portable repeater/digital node for off-grid use, and I'd like to write a script to plot users on a map. I'm mode-agnostic on this, and I'd just use regular APRS over analog, except:
a) you wouldn't be able to have a voice net and report positions on the same radio and channel
b) automated position reporting at 1200pbs with more then just a few users, and you start to step on each other pretty quickly. The digital radios I've used wait until the channel is clear to tx.
