The characteristics of UIDIGI The UIDIGI EPROM (firmware) can only be installed in a TNC2 or 100% compatible Clone with clock speeds of 2.4576Mhz, 4.9152Mhz or 9,8304Mhz, and also having 32K of RAM. * Supports AX.25 release 1 and 2. * Allows full control of AX.25 link layer parameters (Timers, SlotTime, Persistence). It also allows remote sysop control via sysop interface commands. * Repeats only AX.25 UI frames (APRS uses UI frames) * Supports the digipeating of UI AX.25 frames addressed to bot the digipeaters callsign or any programmed alias. * Supports the digipeating of UI AX.25 frames addressed to user definable generic callsigns (up to 8 user defined callsigns - either preprogrammed or via theremote sysop interface). Also allows call substitution. * Supports the digipeating of UI AX.25 frames addressed a generic call (eg: WIDE) using a flooding algorithm. * Supports the digipeating of UI AX.25 frames addressed a generic call (eg: TRACE) using trace+flooding algorithm. * Ignores duplicate frames sent within a defined interval. * Ignores the digipeating of digipeater initiated frames (beacons), or beacon frames already digipeated with call substitution or generic callsign. * Support for handling direction digipeating based on SSID's. APRS Spec allows setting of digipeat direction preference via SSID of UI Frames (Thus, you can state a preferred relay direction (North South East West)) * Remote management (sysop) protected by password. * Digipeater heard station list. * Up to 3 user definable Beacon Text strings. * Replys to the ?APRS? query. UIDIGI is free (but copyrighted!) software. You don't have to pay anything to use UIDIGI as Sysop or user.
