Funny. A ?APRSD query on your station didn't work for me, and I can do so to one of Lynn's APRSISCE servers. But I am seeing your station acknowledge my message (because I put a sequence number in the query message). Very odd. I tried doing a ?APRSP on your station as well, and I started seeing MicE position messages from you (but is that just a feature of the APRS-IS backbone's default filtering?). ?APRSS doesn't work on you either.<br><br>I also tried starting up my own copy of Xastir (v1.9.8) with only an Internet connection and sending queries from it to my own software; I don't see the incoming queries from the Xastir instance (although Xastir is seeing incoming station traffic from APRS-IS).<br><br>So, I'll have to get a better RF connection and try polling some of the RF-local Xastir stations and see what happens.<br><br>Andrew Pavlin, KA2DDO<br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div>> From: javier@kjsl.org<br>> Date: Thu, 8 Mar 2012 23:33:32 -0500<br>> To: aprssig@tapr.org<br>> Subject: Re: [aprssig] What stations should respond to APRS queries?<br>> <br>> <br>> On Mar 8, 2012, at 4:15 PM, Curt, WE7U wrote:<br>> <br>> > On Thu, 8 Mar 2012, Andrew P. wrote:<br>> > <br>> >> I'm curious, because I don't seem to be able to get answers from any clients (other than other instances of my own) from an IGate-only connected client.<br>> > <br>> > If I recall correctly, Xastir has a small subset of queries it answers.
