[aprssig] Fwd: KA6IYS spewing APRS-IS garbage?

[John Gorkos]

Thanks for addressing this.  Looks like things are back to normal.

to set up a monthly reboot on the Pi; ssh into it as the pi user

then

sudo crontab -e

and add a line at the bottom that says

01 01 01 * * reboot

write the file, you're good to go.  It will reboot the Pi on the first 
of the month at 01:01
