 # aprs-pigate
 Prebuilt Raspberry Pi image for running a HAM radio APRS Internet Gateway using [direwolf] and [rtl-sdr]
 
+## Feature List
+:star: Pre-compiled `direwolf` and `rtl-sdr` library
+
+:star: Pre-configured cron job runs every minute to make sure direwolf is running
+
+:star: Logrotate keeps text file logs for the last 14 days and auto deletes older logs
+
+:star: Works out-of-the-box receive-only igate with the [rtl-sdr] v3 kit.
+
+:star: Easily configured for digipeater operation with a usb sound card connected to a radio

 ### Installation

 Once the pi is running, it should be available on your network with hostname `aprs-pigate` and accessible via SSH `pi@aprs-pigate` using the default raspberry password. It is a good idea to change this once logged in, or disable passwords altogether and use SSH keys, which you can do by modifying the `user-data` file accessible on the boot partition after flashing.
 
 ### Viewing Dire Wolf Output
-The startup script creates a `screen` and executes the startup script [`rtl-dw-start.sh`]. If at any time you want to explore the logs, you can ssh into your pigate and run the command `screen -r direwolf`. CTRL+C to leave the screen.

 Logs are also written to `/home/pi/aprslogs/aprs.log`. You can view these with commands like `less` or `tail`, and generally may be easier to work with than the direwolf screen.
 
 ### Customizing the Start Script
-If you are setting up a digipeater, you can disable the Software Defined Radio by creating an empty file `DISABLE_SDR` and placing it into the boot folder of your SD card along with `direwolf.conf`. See the [`rtl-dw-start.sh`] startup script for more details.
