   So for local packet work I was using Outpost which was the easiest path to   
   take - it sets up a pretty basic terminal / tnc that works in conjunction with   
   direwolf via AGWPE if I remember correctly. Where I live packet is really   
   tough as the closest BBS is just on the edge of what I can reach with my   
   current configuration.   
      
   For the ISS I started playing around with UISS which helps manage the very   
   tight constraints of a pass. But I've also been able to decode packets on just   
   my HT's build in APRS functionality. I also managed to use an Android app   
   called APRS droid along with a cheap Yaesu HT! Even managed to reach the   
   station with the rubber duck!
