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

OE7DRT

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-5

APRS on my smartphone. This will only pop up when I do not have any "hardware" APRS devices with me. This is absolutely used without radio waves, injected over the internet via TCP/IP.

OE7DRT-7

Portable. I programmed this into multiple handheld transceivers. My newest gadget is a Mobilinkd TNC4 which I sometimes connect to the ID-52. Using the ID-52 on D-PRS (Icom) will also result in a -7 suffix.

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.

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.
