APRS Digi settings?

Post by Pj »

Anyone know of good proper settings for an APRS digi? Mine will be the only one operating in a 50 mile radius until Jaymz gets his up. I have seen some settings, but they seem to be region/system specific and not sure if there is just something generic.

I also may want to monitor this with WinAPRS as well to see what kind of traffic pops up, don't know if that will effect anything.

This is what I use... Relay,Wide3-3,Relay,Wide7-7,Relay,Wide7-7

I can't figure out why we have so much congestion on 144.39?
:anus:

Seriously though, I use relay,wide3-3 and it works just fine.

Actually.. You should drop the relay out of your digi path. It's redundant.

Wide 3-3 will get you 3 hops regardless of the DIGI settings of Relay,Wide etc...
