Über afskmodem

afskmodem ist ein leistungsfähiger Zweiwege Multichannel und Multibaud Dekoder/Enkoder für AFSK/FSK AX.25 paketbasierte Datenübertragung (Packet Radio, APRS).

  • Die Kommunikation mit einem Digi bzw. iGate erfolgt im AXUDP Format
  • Audioquelle bzw. -ziel können jedes OSS Soundsystem (weitere Infos siehe unten), aber auch Dateien sein (auch Audiopipes).
  • Für reine RX-Systeme kann afskmodem zusammen mit rtl_tcp und sdrtst auch mit gewöhnlichen USB RTL SDR-Sticks verwendet werden (z.B. RX only iGate)
  • afskmodem unterstützt zeitgleich maximal acht Modems mit je maximal zwei channels (Stereo). Theroretisch wären pro Modem auch mehr channels möglich, ist aber einerseits kompliziert zu lösen und andererseits auch sehr praxisfern. Infos dazu gibt es bei Bedarf bei Chris OE5DXL direkt.

Zu OSS: Die Zusammenarbeit mit dem ALSA Soundsystem ist derzeit nicht möglich und auch nicht geplant. Eine Linuxdistribution mit eingebautem OSS ist TinyCore Linux in einer Version kleiner als v4.55. Auch Distributionen mit eingebautem alsaoss könnten funktionieren. Praxistests dazu gibt es aber nicht, hier kann noch viel experimentiert werden.
