| 5 | + |
| 6 | +- [User Guide](User-Guide.pdf) |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | + This is your primary source of information about installation, operation, and configuration. |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +- [Raspberry Pi APRS](Raspberry-Pi-APRS.pdf) |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | + The Raspberry Pi has some special considerations that |
| 13 | + make it different from other generic Linux systems. |
| 14 | + Start here if using the Raspberry Pi, Beaglebone Black, cubieboard2, or similar single board computers. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +## Application Notes ## |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +These dive into more detail for specialized topics or typical usage scenarios. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +- [APRStt Implementation Notes](APRStt-Implementation-Notes.pdf) |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | + 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. |
| 25 | + This document explains how the APRStt concept was implemented in the Dire Wolf application. |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +- [APRStt Interface for SARTrack](APRStt-Interface-for-SARTrack.pdf) |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | + This example illustrates how APRStt can be integrated with other applications such as SARTrack, APRSISCE/32, YAAC, or Xastir. |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +- [Raspberry Pi SDR IGate](Raspberry-Pi-SDR-IGate.pdf) |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | + 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. |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +- [APRS Telemetry Toolkit](APRS-Telemetry-Toolkit.pdf) |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | + Describes scripts and methods to generate telemetry. |
| 39 | + Includes a complete example of attaching an analog to |
| 40 | + digital converter to a Raspberry Pi and transmitting |
| 41 | + a measured voltage. |
| 42 | + |

| 46 | +- [A Better APRS Packet Demodulator, part 1, 1200 baud](A-Better-APRS-Packet-Demodulator-Part-1-1200-baud.pdf) |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | + Sometimes it's a little mystifying why an |
| 49 | +APRS / AX.25 Packet TNC will decode some signals |
| 50 | +and not others. A weak signal, buried in static, |
| 51 | +might be fine while a nice strong clean sounding |
| 52 | +signal is not decoded. Here we will take a brief |
| 53 | +look at what could cause this perplexing situation |
| 54 | +and a couple things that can be done about it. |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +- [A Better APRS Packet Demodulator, part 2, 9600 baud](A-Better-APRS-Packet-Demodulator-Part-2-9600-baud.pdf) |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | + In the first part of this series we discussed 1200 baud audio frequency shift keying (AFSK). The mismatch |
| 61 | + between FM transmitter pre-emphasis and the |
| 62 | + receiver de-emphasis will |
| 63 | + cause the amplitudes of the two tones to be different. |
| 64 | + This makes it more difficult to demodulate them accurately. |
| 65 | + 9600 baud operation is an entirely different animal. ... |
