[amsat-bb] APRStk ? Or other?

Hey Dave.

It takes longer to read the instructions that it does to setup a Raspberry 
Pi to be an iGate.

When the ISS digipeater changed to 70cm, there were not enough iGates so I 
thought it might be fun to throw one together.  There are numerous how-to's 
online, but this one is perhaps the most straight-forward:

https://github.com/wb2osz/direwolf/blob/master/doc/Raspberry-Pi-SDR-IGate.pdf

... unfortunately, the way the document was created you won't be able to 
copy/paste commands.  But regardless, it's not a difficult process if you 
have even the slightest familiarity with a Pi or linux in general.

Hope that helps!

Hi All

I'm setting up an autonomous sat gate using a spare Kenwood TMD700. I seem 
to remember that once upon a time there was a DOS program called APRStk that 
could Doppler correct the TMD700.

Does anyone know of a more up to date alternative that would run on a Pi or 
Pi Zero?
