will be detected with lower signal amplitude. Default value of 1 should be the
best option,
• “Channel busy detect” - this option selects if channel busy is detected by input
signal amplitude (“analog signal level”) or with proper packet start detection
(“digital detect”). The second option allows to work with open-squelch on the
radio, but it can lead to some packet collisions. The first option is default and
should be used in most cases,
• “Consecutive packet send” - this option will make your device send all the
packets from TX queue one after another without any delays (“in bursts”), or
with TX delay, Quiet time, and channel busy detection between every packet
(“separately”). The first one is default and used by most APRS devices,
• “Baudrate” - allows to select packet decoding/encoding method. In most cases
1200/AFSK is used. Please do not select 9600/GMSK if you do not know what you
are doing.
• “Output level” - this option selects level of audio output signal from WX3in1 Plus
2.0 to radio,
• “Input amplifier” - this option selects amplification of input signal from radio to
WX3in1 Plus 2.0.
If you are new to APRS or if you are running the device for the first time, you should
change Callsign, Latitude and Longitude field to proper values for your station. These
fields are important. You should also change PTT option to be compatible with your radio
connection. Other options can be left unchanged as default values should work fine.
10.6. Digipeater Tab
Digipeater Tab contains several sub-tabs allowing to configure different digipeater
options and filters. We will discuss all of them below.
