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.

31
This document explains how the APRStt concept was implemented in the Dire Wolf application.

This example illustrates how APRStt can be integrated with other applications such as SARTrack, APRSISCE/32, YAAC, or Xastir.
WB4APR described a useful application for the [QIKCOM-2 Satallite Transponder](http://www.tapr.org/pipermail/aprssig/2015-November/045035.html).

Don’t have your own QIKCOM-2 Satellite Transponder? No Problem. You can do the same thing with an ordinary computer and the APRStt gateway built into Dire Wolf. Here’s how.

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.
Why stop at 9600 baud? Go faster if your soundcard and radio can handle it.

The de facto standard of measurement is the number of packets decoded from [WA8LMF’s TNC Test CD](http://wa8lmf.net/TNCtest/index.htm).

Many have published the number of packets they have been able to decode from this test. Here they are, all gathered in one place, for your reading pleasure.

There are a lot of ugly signals out there. Many can be improved by decreasing the transmit volume. Others are just plain weird and you have to wonder how they are being generated.
