F4FXL, Geoffrey clears up with wrong APRS telling:

① aprs.fi is not APRS-IS!

② RX-only IGATEs are bad!

③ APRS is always Digital!

Brandmeister TG24098
will with immediate effect be RPN's sole data voice platform.
Operation of the XLX147 D-Star reflector and the attached PEANUT bridge have been ceased.
D-Star transcoding quality never reached a satisfactory level and PEANUT produced unwanted traffic.
TG24098 (Robust Packet) will do the job as of now. And remember:
Keep 3 sec mic handover time!

Expansion of 80m activities (3610kHz USB RPR)
There are 4 IGATEs active on 80m:

DB0UAL-10 (H24)
DO1HH-10 (HX)
HB9ZF-5 (H24)
OH6DL-11 (HX)

Please consider to switch to 3610kHz after twilight. Mobile activities appreciated.

SCS Tracker FW 1.7 m (Mike)
is the latest SCS release. It includes the full manual as of this firmware and update information.

APRSdroid & SCS PTC-IIIusb / DR-7400 / DR-7800 for RPR

You may want to adjust the 800mV when AF-input (or MIC-gain) is already at minimum and ALC is not within limits yet.
