- „FOLLOW“

shows you the distance and direction to that station.

The same applies here: Green writing means that your GPS position is up-to-date and the

distance was calculated using this data. Orange writing means that your GPS data is not

up-to-date and is calculated from your last known position.

If you are moving at more than 5 km/h, you will be shown the direction IN RELATION to

your own driving direction.

You can recognize this by a green arrowhead.

This means if you are moving directly towards the tracked station, the arrow will point

straight up.

If you are not moving, you will be shown the absolute direction in degrees.

For example, up means the station is north of you.

You can recognize this by a red arrowhead as in the image on the left.

Should new position data be received for the station being tracked, this display will be

updated automatically.

"OPEN" takes you back to the selection menu.

- „WHO IS“

Sends a text message to the "Who is" service requesting the displayed callsign.

The "Who is" service then sends you information such as the name and address of the user

of the call sign. However, you can only receive the answer as a text message if you send

the request via an iGate which can also send out APRS packets (TX iGate) or is in WIFI-

APRS mode.

- „Show QR code“

Shows you a QR code with a link to http://aprs.fi for the selected call sign, which you can

open with a smartphone, for example.

- „Send message“

With the selection "Send Message" you go directly to the menu for sending a message and

only have to enter the message text. The destination call sign and SSID are taken from the

displayed station. For more see "New Message".
