Hi,
I am a bit confused. What's the difference between: "ARISS" vs "UNPROTO VIA ARISS" Should they not both work?
Well, we'd hope the net effect is the same ... but I was trying to explain using the command string my hardware needs. Hopefully someone with your HT can offer specific advice for your rig. We may be talking of similar things but with different user interfaces ;-)
Question, it seems you are explicitly doing packet radio and not APRS (a derivative).
A packet setup for UI packets works for both. When I run UI-View (an APRS program) while receiving ISS packets I get an APRS map that looks like this: http://home.comcast.net/~k9jkm/UI_View_ISS_Pass.jpg
If I send =4211.29N/08827.08W- ... I end up on the APRS map with a K9JKM house symbol with the antenna.
If I send Hi Bob ... then it is a text string.
Keep on trying ... it's a memorable hoot when ya score some packets!
