| 16:39.31 | Migs | youtah: That's funnier the more you watch it |
| 16:45.50 | jlp_znc | youtah: https://theksmith.com/hardware/aprs-kenwood-tm-v71a-mobilinkd-bluetooth-tnc-android-tablet-aprsdroid/ |
| 16:46.25 | jlp_znc | I especially like the picture of the old 300baud acoustic coupled modem |
| 16:48.11 | jlp_znc | my first experience with computers involved 110baud acoustic coupled modems, leased phone lines (the phones didn't have dials on them... when you picked up the phone it automatically connected to the modem pool on the other end), and TTY 33 terminals. |
| 16:51.38 | jlp_znc | http://www.columbia.edu/cu/computinghistory/teletype.jpg |
| 16:52.10 | jlp_znc | complete with paper tape reader and punch. I probably still have some rolls of paper tape kicking around somewhere. |
| 18:42.59 | youtah | jlp_znc, the newer one that replaced the 71A has APRS built in it |
| 18:44.39 | youtah | apparently I can just replace the faceplate of the radio with the RC-D710 and Walla! I have APRS |
| 19:01.50 | frostyfrog | xD |
| 19:02.02 | frostyfrog | plug and play, eh? |
| 19:14.42 | jima | wow |
| 20:21.52 | spangborn | Plug and pray |
| 20:23.56 | jlp_znc | The TM-D710 did not replace the TM-V71... they use the same radio head unit and just have different control panels (the APRS functionality is in the D710 head). |
| 20:24.53 | jlp_znc | but since you already have a mobilinkd TNC (and likely an old android tablet or phone laying around) all you would need is the TNC -> data port cable. |
| 20:25.27 | jlp_znc | and the aprsdroid interface is much much better than the control panel on the D710. not that the D710 isn't a nice radio, but I wouldn't spend the money for it at this point. |
| 20:25.44 | spangborn | Yeah but then you have to use Android |
| 20:49.39 | youtah | better than iOS |
| 20:49.50 | jima | not if you like dhcpv6 |
| 20:49.54 | youtah | iOS is like the UDP of mobile operating systems |
| 20:50.08 | jlp_znc | well, I guess you could use windows mobile and aprsisce |
| 20:50.12 | youtah | you never know what you're going to get |
| 20:50.16 | jlp_znc | coughs |
| 20:50.52 | youtah | So.... I stumbled across this: http://www.bearcat1.com/mrscanner/nasa.htm |
| 20:50.55 | youtah | Cool! |
| 20:52.40 | jlp_znc | you know that the shuttle doesn't fly any more, right? |
| 20:53.02 | jlp_znc | http://ariss.net/ |
| 20:53.26 | jlp_znc | the ISS has a TM-D710 on board |
| 20:54.18 | jlp_znc | https://amsat-uk.org/beginners/how-to-work-the-iss-on-aprs-packet-radio/ |
| 20:57.14 | jlp_znc | https://spotthestation.nasa.gov/sightings/view.cfm?country=United_States®ion=Utah&city=Taylorsville#.Wt-aBNPwahI |
| 20:58.04 | jlp_znc | looks like may 4th will be a good opportunity to try to hit the ISS with APRS (or even voice)... it will reach 53 degrees of elevation and be visible for four minutes! |
| 21:03.12 | jlp_znc | anyone ever do anything with SSTV? I found some apps for android that will encode/decode. could be fun. |
| 21:22.23 | frostyfrog | Super nice find, youtah! |
