Hi Bob,
Good thought, but I was on the right menu. And when I do it for the packet mode, the problem moves there.
BUT!!!! It looks like I didn't wait long enough to see the packets show up on the ARISS site, or get propogated through the email system. I just got the two messages I sent to myself via the ISS packet system.
Yeah!!

The APRS mode TX/RX is in the APRS menu. There is a separeate TX/RX setting for PACKET mode in the radio menu. You maybe using the wrong one.

Hi folks,
Ok, so in the manual it says that I can set up the D7 to transmit on one side, and receive on the other, with APRS. With the ISS seemingly in that sort of mode, this would seem to be the configuration to use. APRS menu 2-M gives me that choice, but when I have either of the spilt modes selected (Tx-A, Rx-B, or Rx-A, Tx-B), I can't turn on APRS mode. Packet turns on, but not APRS.
I tried transmitting blind (simplex) on the last pass, but it would be good to be able to hear what's going on too.
What is the magic spell to run on split operations with APRS?
Thanks,
Greg KO6TH
