Simply switching to a higher data rate will probably result in great disappointment. You might expect it to be 8 times faster but it can turn out to be only twice as fast.
In this document, we look at why a large increase in data bit rate can produce a much smaller increase in throughput. We will explore techniques that can be used to make large improvements and drastically speed up large data transfer.

Dire Wolf can serve as a gateway between the APRS radio network and APRS-IS servers on the Internet.
