*December 23, 2010, The jPSKmail HF ARQ client teams up with xastir and UIview
APRS applications*
SM0RWO has added an APRS server port to jPSKmail, where you can connect APRS
map applications like Xastir or UIView. Just connect your map app to 'localhost
8063' and show the posits received via HF on the map.
The server also supports the ~GETNEAR command for the pskmail server to grab
the list of nearby APRS stations/objects, so you can see on the map where your
resources are located. This new feature extends the capabilities of jPSKmail in
the field of NBEMS.
Other features include ARQ client-to-client chat, file up- and download, aprs
messaging and short emails.
jPSKmail clients also include an Igate function for use at home...
Installers for jPSKmail-0.8.5 are available for Linux, windows and OSX; they
can be downloaded at [http://hermes.esrac.ele.tue.nl/pskmail]
jPSKmail is an open source multi-mode soundcard application which uses the well
known Fldigi program as its modem. It employs asymmetrical adaptive mode/speed
switching based on actual channel characteristics; it uses a combination BPSK,
PSKR, MFSK and THOR to cover differing band conditions.
