APRS beacon testers needed

[F1RMB]

Okay.
You will have to check the hardware version printed on the PCB silkscreen (removing the top cover) to check which firmware HW version you must flash in the radio.

I haven't had any issues really with the tests I made walking or in public transport.
As long as I had GPS connection and my signal reached a digipeater on the APRS frequency my positions has been reported to aprs.fi.
Had some complaints from aprs.fi that I was sending updates to fast when my radio was near a window in the apartment and got some positions that jumped around in the neighborhood.
I used the walking profile

I hope this isn't a dumb question, but where can I find documentation on the beta "APRS Options" settings? Mode? Decay? Rates & Speeds "T." settings?

Thanks, Daniel. I'm heading out tomorrow to do some APRS tracking tests with a TYT MD-UV390. Preliminary tests are excellent!

Excellent APRS results using a TYT MD-UV390 and the new firmware. One suggestion: Just like there are (excellent) presets for Car, Bike, etc., it would be great if there were user-programmable presets. For what I'm doing I had to tweak the defaults. It would be nice to be able to save those settings.

Any chance of supporting APRS on the UV-17 Pro GPS?

LOL, the transceiver is not even supported by the firmware...

Have a nice day.

I tested the modes I'm interested in, namely PTT and Auto, but I can't make them work as indicated.
Auto mode: does not work at all, does not transmit any packets, with Interval programmed
PTT mode: Transmit when PTT is released. but does not consider Interval scheduled, each release transmits.
It works like the previous release 2023-09-15
What did I do wrong?
May be a bad installation?
I use MD-UV390

Many Thanks

This version starts to be outdated, few bugs got fixed.
Does you location is correctly set ?

Cheers.
