    Dire Wolf is a software "soundcard" AX.25 packet modem/TNC and APRS encoder/decoder. It can be used stand-alone to observe APRS traffic, as a tracker, digipeater, APRStt gateway, or Internet Gateway (IGate). For more information, look at the bottom 1/4 of this page and in https://github.com/wb2osz/direwolf/blob/dev/doc/README.md

    I use Direwolf with a Pi Zero and I believe there is a way to get the packet data out or passed to a script. I was going to look into this myself as some point as I wanted to just have a small screen on the Pi just to see traffic passing though my iGate on occasion.
