# Documentation for Dire Wolf #
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Essential Reading ##
|
||
|
||
- [User Guide](User-Guide.pdf)
|
||
|
||
This is your primary source of information about installation, operation, and configuration.
|
||
|
||
- [Raspberry Pi APRS](Raspberry-Pi-APRS.pdf)
|
||
|
||
The Raspberry Pi has some special considerations that
|
||
make it different from other generic Linux systems.
|
||
Start here if using the Raspberry Pi, Beaglebone Black, cubieboard2, or similar single board computers.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Application Notes ##
|
||
|
||
These dive into more detail for specialized topics or typical usage scenarios.
|
||
|
||
|
||
- [APRStt Implementation Notes](APRStt-Implementation-Notes.pdf)
|
||
|
||
Very few hams have portable equipment for APRS but nearly everyone has a handheld radio that can send DTMF tones. APRStt allows a user, equipped with only DTMF (commonly known as Touch Tone) generation capability, to enter information into the global APRS data network.
|
||
This document explains how the APRStt concept was implemented in the Dire Wolf application.
|
||
|
||
- [APRStt Interface for SARTrack](APRStt-interface-for-SARTrack.pdf)
|
||
|
||
This example illustrates how APRStt can be integrated with other applications such as SARTrack, APRSISCE/32, YAAC, or Xastir.
|
||
|
||
|
||
- [Raspberry Pi SDR IGate](Raspberry-Pi-SDR-IGate.pdf)
|
||
|
||
It's easy to build a receive-only APRS Internet Gateway (IGate) with only a Raspberry Pi and a software defined radio (RTL-SDR) dongle. Here’s how.
|
||
|
||
- [APRS Telemetry Toolkit](APRS-Telemetry-Toolkit.pdf)
|
||
|
||
Describes scripts and methods to generate telemetry.
|
||
Includes a complete example of attaching an analog to
|
||
digital converter to a Raspberry Pi and transmitting
|
||
a measured voltage.
|
||
|
||
## Miscellaneous ##
|
||
|
||
|
||
- [A Better APRS Packet Demodulator, part 1, 1200 baud](A-Better-APRS-Packet-Demodulator-Part-1-1200-baud.pdf)
|
||
|
||
Sometimes it's a little mystifying why an
|
||
APRS / AX.25 Packet TNC will decode some signals
|
||
and not others. A weak signal, buried in static,
|
||
might be fine while a nice strong clean sounding
|
||
signal is not decoded. Here we will take a brief
|
||
look at what could cause this perplexing situation
|
||
and a couple things that can be done about it.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
- [A Better APRS Packet Demodulator, part 2, 9600 baud](A-Better-APRS-Packet-Demodulator-Part-2-9600-baud.pdf)
|
||
|
||
In the first part of this series we discussed 1200 baud audio frequency shift keying (AFSK). The mismatch
|
||
between FM transmitter pre-emphasis and the
|
||
receiver de-emphasis will
|
||
cause the amplitudes of the two tones to be different.
|
||
This makes it more difficult to demodulate them accurately.
|
||
9600 baud operation is an entirely different animal. ... |
