What's Changed

  • All previous versions of aprs-weather-submit had a bug that didn't allow users to create packets that reported 100% relative humidity. Due to a bug in the code, users could only report humidity values from 1% (the minimum, per the APRS specification) to 99%. Thank you to Jeff, N9CQS for the bug report!
  • I've made some minor changes on the backend to better support being packaged for Debian-based Linux distributions.
  • Update README.md by @ploeffler in #11

New Contributors

  • Jeffrey McPike, N9CQS emailed me about this humidity bug. Thank you for the report!

Full Changelog: v1.7.1...v1.7.2

Downloads

I will be uploading binaries over the next few days. If you don't see yours, check back later.

Windows

Download aprs-weather-submit-<arch>.exe for your architecture. The binaries are digitally signed.

System requirements: Windows Vista or newer. (For Windows XP and older, use the DOS build.)

macOS

Download aprs-weather-submit.dmg. While the app and installer are digitally signed, macOS may warn you that it's from an untrusted developer because it's not notarized. That's normal.

System requirements: A Mac with a PowerPC, Intel, or Apple Silicon processor; and macOS 10.0 or newer.

Linux

If you are using a Debian-based distribution, add the official aprs-weather-submit PPA to your system.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:signofzeta/aprs-weather-submit
sudo apt install aprs-weather-submit

If you don't want to add the repository, the .deb and .ddeb files are below. All other Linux distributions will need to compile the source code.

DOS

Download APRSWX.EXE. MS-DOS, FreeDOS, and others have no concept of code signing, but you can use the GPG signature to verify its authenticity. APRS-IS is not supported on DOS systems.

System requirements: a PC-compatible with an Intel 8086 or newer processor.
