So there is this little page that shows you some information about
|
|
|
|
|
my devices on the [aprs.fi][1] website. Currently you may find the
|
|
|
|
|
following devices:

|
## OE7DRT(-0)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I usually do not use this "variant" of my callsign, but Winlink injects
|
|
|
|
|
it when I connect to the Winlink Network. Or more precisely: when I include
|
|
|
|
|
my geocoordinates in a message.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## OE7DRT-1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When I'm using my Thinkpad for hamradio (yes I have some hamradio apps installed
|
|
|
|
|
on my main laptop) I'm sometimes firing up some digital madness using a SignaLink
|
|
|
|
|
and some handheld radios. These combined with direwolf and Xastir show me the
|
|
|
|
|
surrounding areas APRS objects and items. I am sometimes connecting to the APRS
|
|
|
|
|
network through a TCP/IP connection and reporting the heard stations to the network.
|
|
|
|
|
If I am not at home, I make the station mobile and connect a GPS mouse to the laptop.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## OE7DRT-5
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
APRS on my smartphone. This will only pop up when I do not have any "hardware"
|
|
|
|
|
APRS devices with me. This is either a internet connection from my phone or with
|
|
|
|
|
the use of another non-APRS handheld radio using the aprs.fi app on an iPhone with
|
|
|
|
|
its software TNC.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## OE7DRT-7
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Portable. I programmed this into multiple handheld transceivers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## OE7DRT-13
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
My weather station collects data since March 2018 but I started to
|
|
|
|
|
publish weather data since January 2022. I've seen the weatherstation
|
|
|
|
|
recently in the Windy app on an Android smartphone.

## OE7DRT-15
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The newest suffix is used by a LoRa Gateway -- currently indoor with a small
|
|
|
|
|
antenna. It may be offline though.

The following two are not always visible, but they might pop up from
|
|
|
|
|
time to time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## OE7DRT B
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
D-Star Hotspot. Runs on a Raspberry Pi 4 B currently.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## OE7DRT-R
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Well, -R is not a valid suffix for APRS but this is how things go nowadays.
|
|
|
|
|
This represents another Hotspot, running DMRGateway which connects to the
|
|
|
|
|
Brandmeister network as well as the IPSC2 network. Runs on a Raspberry Pi 2 B.
