`aprs_igate_beacon` tells the receiver to publish its own location on the network in intervals. Before enabling this, please make sure that the `receiver_gps` is set to the correct location of the receiver.
Please note: APRS data is forwarded to the network straight from the decoding software (direwolf).

## WSPRnet
It is currently not possible to feed data back into [WSPRnet](http://wsprnet.org/) due to the fact that the only API known to the author requires more information than the decoder is capable of delivering.
The wsprd binary will write additional fields to a file called `ALL_WSPR.TXT`, which is also the same format that is required by the API. Due to the architecture of OpenWebRX, decoding will occur in parallel, and as such I do consider that file to be corrupted by design. The output on STDOUT (which is parsed by OpenWebRX) is lacking some fields, and since the fields in the upload are only identified by their position, I would have to fake values for these fields, which I do not intend to do.
