The OpenWrt/X-Wrt AX.25 Project

For quite some time (some of the Seattle WETNET gang will say 'forever') I've been working on adding AX.25 support to embedded devices like your typical home router. Originally using the software from the OpenEmbedded project but eventually settling on OpenWrt and it's companion web interface X-Wrt.

The OpenWrt/X-Wrt AX.25 Project allows any router supported by OpenWrt to use the amateur radio AX.25 protocol. The core AX.25 tools and applications turn your router (along with a tnc and radio) into a TCP/IP capable packet system, a version of Digi_Ned makes it a smart digipeater while aprsd gives it the ability to be an APRS Internet gateway (igate).

All of it configurable through a handy web interface.

Field Day 2009

Whewww!! DSCN0728DSCN0729

Once again it's over, and while as usual it was a lot of fun I am glad it will be another year before the next one. :-)

The weather was absolutely incredible and the turnout exceptional.

WETNET/ARRL Field Day

Come one Come all!

Once again the WETNET gang will be participating in the ARRL Field Day from the QTH of N7RIG in the beautiful Skagit valley.

Our special antenna project this year is a five element Bruce array for 40M, with a reflector. In addition we'll have a tri-band beam, 160M vertical (see last months QST), 40/80M dipole and a G5RV for the GOTA station.

We're getting a facelift...

After years of the same old look, and with an assist from some hack attempts in December, we're undergoing some construction

While some of the content is back in place much still remains to be done. Please be patient as we continue to improve the site, there are lots of cool things to come.
