Evening. I probably should be sleeping, so I'm going to try and |
|
|
|
make this entry brief. Besides, this is really just a prep entry |
|
|
|
anyways. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As you may already know, September is ROOPHLOCH [1] month, where |
|
|
|
we attempt to phlog outside and off grid. Last year didn't happen, |
|
|
|
so I felt determined to at least show up for this one. Anyways, |
|
|
|
I've had plans to make something like this happen, but I needed to |
|
|
|
lay that groundwork. And even with a nice holiday weekend, I still |
|
|
|
managed to distract myself until the last minute. At least I did |
|
|
|
accomplish some stuff, instead of leaving a wake of unfinished |
|
|
|
stuff per usual. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This year, I'm planning on using APRS to phlog using a basic |
|
|
|
tailphlogger whipped up in python. Many thanks to M0YNG for the |
|
|
|
framework with the APRS to Mastodon script, which I used to start |
|
|
|
off. It's by no means complete, and I want to fix some stuff like |
|
|
|
sending back ACKs to prevent retransmits, etc instead of the dupe |
|
|
|
check, but the handy method I had hoped existed didn't, so I think |
|
|
|
some raw text processing will be needed to make it happen. Or |
|
|
|
maybe I could roll it into aprslib and submit it upstream. Hmm. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A link to the listings [2] will be below, and if anyone wants to |
|
|
|
give it a whirl, please send me a message/irc/whatever on the |
|
|
|
zaibatsu if you're there or contact me on ~team and I'll enter |
|
|
|
your callsign into the username map and give you the details. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Anyways, it's late. Night. |
