The current APRS upload implementation is a bit of a hack, and just pushes objects into APRS-IS, without any proper path information. It also connects, and immediately disconnects.

An updated APRS-IS uploader should:

  • Log in and stay logged in (will need to apply some sort of filtering to avoid getting lots of APRS-IS data)
  • Optionally upload a home station position.
  • Include timestamps correctly.
  • Actually be compliant with the APRS spec: http://www.aprs.org/doc/APRS101.PDF
  • Upload packets in a format compatible with radiosondy.info's APRS-IS server.

Should also add support for this: http://www.aprs.org/datum.txt

Closing this, as the APRS uploader has been significantly improved. Still does the connect/send/disconnect thing, but at least it uploads packets to radiosondy.info correctly now...
