Hi Stephen.
You can find the repository here: https://gitlab.com/FoxyFoxie/pax25/
As mentioned, only the application layer has been built, with some shims
for the frame queue/connections/etc.
It is extensively documented, though there aren't diagrams. It includes
a walk-through tutorial on
Back in the 1990s, we had a great packet system around Houston called TCAPS.
Several nodes both 1200 and 9600 baud interconnected via 430.55 19200baud
backbone... Unfortunately it started falling apart about the time I moved to
Dallas in 96. I'm actually surprised there's still interest in
If they would ever turn back on the APRS digipeater on the ISS, that would
be a great way to work packet.
NO-44 is another packet digipeater satellite, however, it only works in the
daylight hours, as the batteries have failed some time ago. 145.825 is the
frequency to listen on.
All the best,
Hey Fox,
Good afternoon. I remember chatting with you at a brews with BVARC about a
python library for ham comms that you were developing. Do you have a GitHub
repository or a SW architecture/block diagram of the signal flow? Just
wondering. BTW, this sounds really cool.

Hi Scott and Terry,
There are also a few persons (such as myself) running individual nodes
with things like BBSes. I'm currently working on some Python libraries
with a few friends to make some new custom AX.25 apps that can do much
more than packet radio has historically done. Right now a
Scott, That's a perfect case for APRS digipeater works. You should do some
googling on that and see what special software interfaces you need. I use a
Tiny Tracker but it is offline for a while. Long range I'm converting the Tiny
Tracker to a Raspberry Pi HAM digital utility but I don't have
