In my previous blog I mentioned that the available ports had changed from the previous install of APRSD. As my I-Gate was only connecting to one of the Australian T2 servers, the claim on my javAPRS status page saying that to get a “Full APRS Feed” on port 10152 was simply untrue! I wasn’t connecting to any of the following core servers (first.aprs.net/second.aprs.net/third.aprs.net) The data I receive from the Australian T2 server is not a full worldwide feed, but a filtered Australian & New Zealand feed. So I’ve corrected this by changing the port for (what was) a “Full Feed” to that of “Filtered” from the Australian T2 server so hopefully this will remove any confusion! (confused?)
Here’s what is available on the Australian T2 servers (first.aprs.net.au/second.aprs.net.au)
| Available Ports | |
|---|---|
| Port Number | Description |
| 1314 | Messaging Only Feed |
| 8080 | HTTP POST Submission Port |
| 10149 | SATGATE Feed |
| 14577 | Your Position + 100km |
| 14578 | ZL Feed |
| 14579 | VK/ZL Feed |
| 14580 | User-defined Filtered Feed |
So my available ports are now as follows… (vk7hse.org)
| Available Ports | |
|---|---|
| Port Number | Description |
| 1314 | Message-only Feed |
| 14579 | VK/ZL Feed |
| 14580 | User-defined Filtered Feed |
At the time of writing, the first.aprs.net.au was down due to being relocated!
