By having two clients you can not only send your position, but also send and receive APRS messages - it is also possible to use **other KISS APRS clients** over Bluetooth serial, just use `rfcomm` on Linux to setup serial over Bluetooth and put up AX25 interface with `kissattach`, then use any existing Linux APRS clients, such as `Xastir` or even run `TCPIP` over AX25 -- **LoRa APRS iGate RX/TX server + Digipeater** - - **RF to APRS-IS gating**, it will connect to WiFI and will forward received APRS positions from RF LoRa into the APRS-IS network, it also reports client signal level, by appending it into the APRS comment, so you can see your signal reports in different locations (could be enabled or disabled from config) +- **LoRa APRS iGate RX/TX server over WiFi + Digipeater** + - **RF to APRS-IS gating**, it will connect to your WiFI and will forward received APRS positions from RF LoRa into the APRS-IS network, it also reports client signal level, by appending it into the APRS comment, so you can see your signal reports in different locations (could be enabled or disabled from config). This way, it is also possible to setup portable iGate by connecting to your mobile phone's hotspot and provide power from the phone USB port by using OTA cable - **APRS-IS to RF gating**, it is possible to enable it together with the filter in the config, so APRS-IS data will be forwarded to RF - **RF digirepating** for basic `WIDEn-n` paths, `TRACE` and others are not supported yet - - **beaconing**, own station periodic beacon announcement to APRS-IS and RF + - **Beaconing**, own station periodic beacon announcement to APRS-IS and RF # Compatible Boards All work was done on ESP32-WROOM with custom made LoRa shield, if your ESP32 board is compatible then it should work, but there might be need to redefine pinouts to LoRa module if it differs (see further description in Software Setup section), currently pinouts are connected from LoRa to ESP32-WROOM as (SS/RST/DIO0 could be redefined in loraprs_service.h):
