The problem with this is that the default filter on most servers for 14580 is m/500. This requires you to send a position packet into the port before the filter will start to send you any data, but you can't do this with an unverified connection. You will need to set the filter to something that will send you packets without needing a position packet. > -----Original Message----- > From: David Flood [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Tuesday, January 01, 2013 11:49 > > Unfortunately a lot of the APRS-IS servers require authentication before > they'll send data.
