Woohoo! My upgraded APRS iGate is up & running for the first time! Now on a RPi 5 & using much-updated software.
I'm literally the only iGate in town now too.
I still need to do a lot of admin stuff:
- Figure out how to fit the new Pi into my stack of Pis with its different case
- Look up how to automatically send a command to kick everything off at startup instead of manually
- Customize the Pi settings to my prefs/needs and install a screen saver.
