Re: Scroller settings, and IS to RF Gate Questions
|
Lynn,?
This all makes sense and yes this is all screen shots?from the W2CXM instance.?
Here is the filter that is set up to gate from IS to RF
a/42.6295/-076.7045/42.2555/-076.23833 -b/KD2EAT/N2PYI-13/KC2DYR -s//a&/D?
I did not have the "Log All" checked so there are no log files. This has been changed, as has the scroller setting you suggested.?
Sounds like everything is WAD and I just never happened to notice it before.?

Well, on looking at CT1END-2's messages at
(), it doesn't
matter.?? The posit from CT1END-2 was likely supposed to go out to
RF in your local.? I suspect, but haven't researched enough to
prove, that someone in W2CXM's RF footprint checked in to the
ANSRVR HOTG Thursday check-in net.?? And for the next 12 hours,
all further checkins to that net would generate both a message to
that station as well as a posit packet from the station that
checked in to the net as CT1END-2 definitely did.
If you have Enables / Ports / Log All checked, then you should
have some *.PKT files in the directory from which W2CXM runs.??
The most recent file will contain all of your station's RF
traffic.? In there, you will likely see the CQ HOTG being sent
from some RF station to ANSRVR and ANSRVR's response to that
station indicating how many copies of that check-in message were
transmitted.
And from that point forward, you will likely see other N:HOTG
messages addressed to that station followed sometime later by
posit packets of the sources of those messages, of which I suspect
CT1END-2 was one.
Oh, and these so-called "Courtesy Posits" after the messages
won't show up in your FilterTest, but will be in both Transmit and
the *.PKT file if you have it enabled.?? They would also appear
(IIRC) in one of the IGate* trace logs.
Let me know if this matches what you see in W2CXM's logs.? If so,
it is all WAD - Working As Designed.

Hey all,
While driving home tonight I was seeing (on my D710) IS
stations being gated to RF that shouldn't have been that
indicated they were TCPIP?First, and W2CXM Last, normally
this indicates that W2CXM is gating them that are well
outside my area filter This prompted me to take a look at
the station?W2CXM and restart it. This happened between 4
and 5pm Eastern. When I look at the Raw data on ()
I"m not seeing what I saw on my radio face, which is
odd....?
First thing I noticed?while looking at the instance is
that while my scroller is set to RF Only it is giving me
stations that are IS Stations.?
I've got my trace logs up and running for capture,
right now they seem to be behaving themselves. Has anyone
seen this behavior before?
Thanks for any insight
