This all sounds very cool.
I will do some testing.

I have pushed version X0.2c to main. This includes the Digipeater.
You can check the status of the digipeater with: get status
You can turn it on and off from the console with: open digi shut digi
You can send a ground command from the version 0.46f of pacsat ground, which can be downloaded here: https://www.g0kla.com/pacsat/
The digipeater requires the via callsign to equal the callsign as setup in the code. To simplify that I now print the callsigns at boot into the console.
I tested this with UISS, but would appreciate other tests.
The digi is on or off for all receiver channels. We probably want to be able to turn it on for just one of them, so I have reserved 4 bytes in MRAM to hold some mode bits for each receiver channel. We can then configure a channel to be command only, or to optionally support broadcast, uplink or digi packets. The bytes are there but the rest of the code and commands needs to be written. Given I inserted new bytes you will need to run pre flight init or maybe even init new proc.
With that said, I won't be able to make the meeting tonight due to a clash with another meeting. Send questions or comments here via email. We can also discuss next time.
