Hello! On my HackRF Portapack I really enjoyed using the APRS decoder. I was receiving APRS messages all day - Usually multiple messages a minute. The last month or so I haven’t been able to receive any aprs or even see any on the waterfall. I Was able to receive these inside my house as it was a STRONG signal. Now I can’t seem to recieve it at all even driving around town. Tried both portapacks, different antennas, etc and still nothing. Wondering what happened.

Are you able receive other VHF signals? (NWS from Southfield? Livingston fire dispatch? South Lyon fire dispatch? LARK 2m repeater?)

Do you hear APRS signals on other radios?
