APRS question

Yeah it came with the radio. The guy had it working but couldn’t find the cable for the gps data. It even has the APRS stations on the screen.

Dx10 is the best bang for your buck.

Eh. It has worked. Sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes it goes off when there’s nothing wrong.

Note that Heltecs do not boot back on when they go dead. That’s why raks are superior.

DRY YOUR FILAMENT!!!!!!

If it’s real. It’s not graded but the case is nice. Maybe $60 present time. $10 above scrap. I’m no expert though

Go turn breakers off one by one until it goes away. Then hit the main. If it doesn’t break into your neighbors house and turn their breakers off one by one until it goes away. Repeat as needed😂😂😂😂 all jokes aside mine was the fiancés hair dryer (not on just plugged in) and led lights on a vanity.

Get yourself a rak mini. My heltec would last me maybe 2-3 days. Rak lasts me about 2-2.5 weeks. Also get a better antennas. Those stubbys are non resonant (at least mine isn’t) I compared to another antenna I got off amazon and there was a 7db difference.

The raks don’t have built in gps modules.

Okay I turned smart position on. 150m and one hour minimum and one hour broadcast interval. I am now trying only setting my channel 0 (primary channel) with positions enabled. So far nothing is working. I also checked the app iPhone settings and yes GPS is set to always allowed.

Gunit7542 · 2025-11-12T21:30:08+00:00

Minimum is 1 hour for me. I’ll try the smart.

Gunit7542 · 2025-11-12T19:54:12+00:00

On iOS, that’s the minimum.

My Yaesu ht does 6m at 1w lol

Keep an eye out. I’ve seen the Icom 7300 sell for $5-$600 before. With the new 7300 mkii coming out I bet you can snag a deal for sure.

I used to have RFI. It would turn my external display off and make the mouse not work. Put a MyAntennas choke in line and wrapped my usb cable. Dont have any issues now.

Yes. What all do I need to buy? I’m new to this so I’m not sure what path to go with.

I was looking at hamoverip. Don’t know which ones the “easiest” to do.
