NAME
       xastir_udp_client  -  send  simple messages to xastir for APRS(tm) net‐
       work.

SYNOPSIS
       xastir_udp_client <hostname> <port> <callsign> <passcode> {-identify  |
       [-to_rf] <message>}

DESCRIPTION
       xastir_udp_client  sends	 packets  into	the  UDP  listening port of an
       enabled xastir instance.

EXAMPLES
	xastir_udp_client localhost 2023 <callsign>  <passcode>	 "APRS	Packet
       Goes Here"

       Currently  that	will inject the packet into Xastir's decoding routines
       and send it to any TCP-connected clients. It will also igate it to  the
       INET  if	 you have igating enabled.  It will send the packet out the RF
       ports as third-party packets only if you add the	 "-to_rf"  flag	 after
       the passcode like this:

	xastir_udp_client  localhost  2023  <callsign> <passcode> -to_rf "APRS
       Packet"

       The UDP client is useful for generating and injecting APRS packets from
       external	 scripts.   It	can  also be used to fetch the callsign of the
       remote xastir server by using the -identify flag:

	xastir_udp_client localhost 2023 <callsign> <passcode> -identify


NOTES
       This is a very simple utility that provides no  validation  of  message
       content.
