Default [W&DARC] Raspberry PiGate Presentation

Raspberry PiGate Presentation

Next meeting, 20th June, will have a short presentation and Q&A session on
the Raspberry Pi and RTL-SDR dongle based APRS iGate that now resides at
the club. It is a chance to understand how to use the versatile and cheap
RTL-SDR dongle and that Raspberry Pi gathering dust in the corner of your
shack as an APRS iGate.

The MX0WRC iGate can be seen on APRS.fiÂ*and was set up using the direwolf
softwareÂ*and was easy enough to do. There is plenty of scope to hook one up
to an existing 2m rig, develop your own digipeater or even listen out for
the ISS as it passes over.
