Re: [Xastir] IGating
How do I use Findu to see if I am IGating? The tool mentioned by VE7MKF is a better iGate 'test' than Findu. However if you know you are iGating someone (or think you are) you can look them up in findu and see their raw data. Just change the callsign to the one that you are interested in... Looking at Findu's raw data is a good way to force yourself to learn how to read raw APRS packets ;) Raw data for my truck http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/raw.cgi?call=KD7UBJ-7 Visual data (map) for my truck http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/find.cgi?call=kd7ubj-7 I'm also thinking that Findu is tweaked or at least the data is stale right now. I went out and blasted a packet from my truck to my iGate and Findu does not report it either via its raw or map page. However if I look at the www.db0anf.de page for my iGate I can see that it saw my iGate gating my truck very recently. Hmmm, anybody have any idea why Findu is stale (or why my brain is on vacation)? ;) Findu raw data for my truck http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/raw.cgi?call=KD7UBJ-7 db0anf.de data for my USAM digi http://www.db0anf.de/hamweb/aprsdb/showdata/USAM/shdigiusers? sortdigiusers=ld Greg ___ Xastir mailing list Xastir@xastir.org http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
