NOTE: You indicated using UI-view. You should look into the Budlist or excludes settings, you can set a digipeater to ignore specific callsigns. You might also want to investigate what the do in LA. Reportedly, the Los Angeles area is so heavy with APRS traffic that they have figured out a digi strategy. It entails modifying ANY APRS traffic digipeater path to 1 echo off of a digi, then done. There is a digi for dummies settings I have used in the past. It trapped the WIDE7-7 somebody had, and only would digi 1 time. (somebody archived Hasan's email onto the web) <http://homepage.ntlworld.com/ajmckinnon/UI-view-digi_US.txt>
If you are using UI-view, you can also exclude other types of stations, for instance "TFC_" blocks the UItraffic reports. (If I want to know how many APRS messages are sent 300 miles away, I will use the INTERNET for that, sending those reports out across digis is a waste of airtime) <[email protected]> Sent by: [email protected] 03/31/2010 08:33 AM Please respond to [email protected] To <[email protected]> cc Subject Re: [tracker2] Re: blocking a call sign from i-gate let me make this entire issue clear. I don?t have anything against this person directly. I know what setting he needs to changes and how to change it if he would only change it and try to take the help then it would make everyone happy. from what I'm see is its his cornering settings, he just needs to change his SBTTIME settings as it shows in some setup programs or some people call it the turn time. I just wanted to make this clear that I have nothing directly against the person its just been over a year since 5 people have talked to him and if is wiling to listen to people I will hope network back up. I just wanted to point this out just in case it got back to him.
