Huge problem with requirments.txt module versions, repeating rules and aprs system.

[PROCHOTKILLER]

1. After a long time of tinkering with hbnet i was able to at least get it running. The problem was that your code requires specific functions that the newer versions of pip modules that are installed from the requirements.txt are not able to provide + the best python version for running hbnet at least in my case is 3.9.18

2. The working server config from HBlink just won't work in any shape or form.(Either from importing in the GUI or configuring it from scratch by hand) We are running HBlink locally only so we want private channels and public channels on each repeater/hotspot with echo access and aprs functionality.

4. The APRS funcionality just will not decode any gps packet. Even with a supported radio. (AnyTone AT-D878UV II Plus)

5. If i could be of any help to take the project further at least to the stable working phase please reach out to me. We have our own private repeaters and hotspots to test with, our own private server space, multiple radios by multiple manufacturers with gps support (AnyTone AT-D878UV II Plus, TYT MD-9600 PRO with GPS, TYT MD-390 with GPS, BAOFENG DM-1702 with GPS)

[PROCHOTKILLER]

Anytime a radio tries to upload its gps location over dAPRS i get a error in the log and ofcourse no reaction on the aprs IS.
This happens on the officialy supported AnyTone D878, on the baofeng 1702 and the TYT MD9600.

This is the log:

Ok so ive managed to get it working.

1. IGate position reporting - Solved (I had to add a zero in front of the Longitude value, Format for IGate position: igate_lat=2309.24N:igate_lon=06123.05E)
2. Radio position reporting - Solved (so far only from 2 supported anytone radios and only on private call even tho both private and group calls are selected)
3. APRS Settings format - Solved This is the format where XXXXXXX is your dmr id, YYYYYY is your callsign, ZZZZZZ is your aprs.is pincode: {XXXXXX: [{'call': 'YYYYYY'}, {'ssid': '1'}, {'icon': '/F'}, {'comment': 'DMR dAPRS System XXXXXX'}, {'pin': 'ZZZZZZ'}, {'APRS': True}]}
