Great video! I had no idea about APRS and got to operate it on my VX-6R. Your video helped me understand each step, the additional equipment required, and finally how to operate it. Thanks again!!

Thank you so much for the video! Trying to get this to work and like others, didn't know that the low power setting on TX was best. Gracias!

A local ham has got a VX6. I got his Bluetooth connected to his Android Cell. My Mobilink TNC connects quite well with my Android as well with my Kenwood D 710

Does the TNC3 have an Emergency! Beacon transmit setting, in case you really do find yourself in an emergency? EXCELLENT VIDEO btw!

TNC3 is borrowing some of the phones abilities. In this case bluetooth, data and GPS. In regards to your question you can kind of see coordinates in the app on the phone but one could also just use another mapping app or one that parses GPS coordinates to locate yourself in the world. In a real deep woods scenario I would probably want a Garmin GPS with Sat phone/messaging abilities and lots of spare electric charge.

I'm not sure if it depends on the age or type of the VX-6 you have, but in my experience, after looking at how Direwolf decoded the packets from my (quite old) VX-6 and TNC3, it turns out I had to reduce the mic gain on the VX-6 from 9 to 4 and got a much more clean transmit signal.

I can believe that. My VX-6 is about 3 years old. Although, the VX-6 has the best audio for an HT.

Same here, anything more than about 2 on the mic gain gets blown out (distorted) Even with the TNC output turned down substantially down to about 25 through the Mobilinkd app.

Man I am having a hard time getting my tnc2 to trip the PTT on my FT-70dr. It receives fine and if I manually press the PTT it works. But the multiplex isn't working.

My TNC status says “searching” and no raw packets coming in.
