    Thanks to Michael Phelps NA7Q, we're back in the APRS Radio-to-SMS business! "SMSGTE" is currently offline, so let's use the new "SMS" gateway instead. Two-way text messaging between APRS-enabled radios and phones is now simple and easy.

    Start here, http://theconnectdesk.com/SMS

    Be sure to "opt-in" any phone numbers you'll be using.

    Thank you!!!
    Just fyi for those who don't/can't click links, the connectdesk URL doesn't work; the correct link is aprs.wiki/SMS.
    SO pumped that APRS - SMS is back!!

    APRS.wiki is the new official domain for SMS. Be sure all SMS users consent to receiving messages by opting in!

    If you want SMS in your country, please contact and we can make it happen!

    Hello Michael,
    Can you please help me to get reconnected to the aprs wiki gateway, as my sms to and from my radio and my phone has stopped working.
    I can see in aprs fi, that my messages are being logged successfully, but nothing is appearing in my messaging app anymore.
    Any help with this would be greatly appreciated, as I have really enjoyed being able to send sms to my radio and back again.
