[Xastir] Yaesu APRS radios to be used as an RX-only Igate

[Fred Hillhouse]

The following HOST would just point to 127.0.0.1. I making an assumption the
code is running on your Xastir PC.
Another assumption is that whatever it takes to run the code is also on the
PC.

Best regards,
Fred N7FMH


# Please fill these out accordingly
HOST = "noam.aprs2.net"     # north america tier2 servers round robin
USER = "KM6XXX-1"
PASS = "00000"
POSITION = "3854.70NR12056.15W"

Couldn't this be connected to Xastir running a server port? 

In APRSIS32 (Windows) there is a server port option that allows other
"clients" to use APRSIS32 in a similar fashion as the APRS-IS. APRSIS32 will
then forward to APRS-IS.

Hello Xastir users,

I saw this today on the APRSDroid group and thought it would be worth 
passing on.  APRS-enabled Yaesu radios have always been limited in the 
fashion that you cannot access the TNC say like how you can with a 
Kenwood radio.  One feature they do have is to send the APRS data stream 
to the serial port.  This developer wrote a program to parse that data 
and send the relevant data to APRS-IS.   I wonder if a similar feature 
could be added to Xastir?
