How to get APRS to work?

This is what I see in my log file:

2015.10.12 17:47:36 meteoplug: weathernet: APRS: error socket open (1): ,
2015.10.12 17:47:41 meteoplug: weathernet: APRS - timeout: error socket open (1): ,

At the Weather Networks page this is what is set for the APRS server:

Code: Select all

:14580#-1

Is this correct or schould it be something else?
