This GitHub repository contains the development of an APRS hub that transmits various sensor data like spO2, location, and altitude. The project uses Raspberry Pi, Tiny Circuit Python boards, and MQTT for data transmission.
only built for debian wheezy not jessie so use wheezy.
had to configure raspi-config to wait for network at boot because wheezy aprsc startup dependencies didn't work with jessie systemd and it started (and failed to dns resolve) too soon

The normal Debian installation instructions are good, remember to use
wheezy as DISTRIBUTION in sources.list:
http://he.fi/aprsc/INSTALLING.html
1) If you've installed aprsc by hand before, remember to remove it first.
Make a backup copy of aprsc.conf, and "sudo dpkg --purge aprsc". If
/opt/aprsc doesn't disappear completely, reboot and "sudo rm -rf
/opt/aprsc".
2) Raspbian does not load IPv6 by default, and the default aprsc configs
include dual-stack IPv4+IPv6 configuration (Listens on "::" - all IP
addresses). You must load the IPv6 module to run aprsc with this default
config:
sudo bash
modprobe ipv6
echo ipv6 >> /etc/modules
The last command will make the ipv6 module load automatically after a
reboot.
Yes, you need to do that even if you don't really have IPv6 on your
network.
