Help needed with UISS and APRS
I gave up on AGWPE in frustration. It worked great with my IC-910H, I could not get it to trigger the PTT switch on my Flex 5000, so I switched to the UZ7HO modem included with UISS.
I am able to decode packets and I can trigger the PTT, but it is not being received by any stations.
1. What mode should I be using on my Flex? FM simplex with 5 kHz deviation is what I have selected. 2. What about the antenna? I am using an antenna with significant gain, and this antenna was able to send packets with my IC-910H with ease. 3. Is there power out? Yes, measuring 60 watts.
It's something simple...any ideas?

Make sure you don't have any audio processors, tone controls or filters turned on such as DSP, noise blankers, etc. It needs to be clean untouched audio to decode properly. Michael KC4ZVA
