Hello Kelly !
Well, actually, this 'fix' appears to have worked!
Though I'm not too sure that you were seeing these errors and experiencing the total lockout to VarAC once those pesky messages began to appear.

Thanks for the help.

This is just behavior experienced a work around is launch vara modem, and don’t let varac auto start the modem. Otherwise it will fail twice and work the third time normally for me . Hihi?

Spent several hours today trying to find out why the pgm was working fine when I left it running before retiring at 2200 Eastern.

this is VarAC v 8.0.6 on LM-Vict with '73 Linux'

Ideas would be gladly welcomed. I posted here feeling that more of everyone is using such programs than on a plain-LinuxMint board.
However, I've been noted to be wrong, in the past.

I'm running on several different machines and OSes and I always have to install JS8Call and hamlib from source. Otherwise, I have hamlib incompatibility problems with JS8Call. The build statically links a compatible hamlib (the JS8Call binary will be much larger than the original one). CAT never works on my (tr)uSDX without doing the build over the default 73 Linux build or a package installation on my other systems. Sometimes I've even had problems with my 7300 until I did my own build.

73 Linux on my RPi4 was no exception. It's only JS8Call that has the problem with incompatible hamlib. WSTJT-X works fine. On 73 Linux, I removed the default hamlib from the system too, as covered here:

/g/KM4ACK-Pi/topic/87025200#6369

73,
Cal - AD8Q

Working with Jay offline, we have this solved. The "&" character in a password will cause the Pat Menu login feature to fail. An has been created.

First, thanks for the note on python bindings with hamlib. https://github.com/km4ack/73Linux/issues/45

The uninstall feature of 73Linux is still a work in progress. Not all apps have this feature yet.

There are conflicts between hamlib installed from the repo and built from source. If installing from the repo with apps like gpredict, the user should avoid installing hamlib built from source. Previously if the user choose to install hamlib, the script would remove libhamlib4. Unfortunately, this also would uninstall apps like gpredict altogether.

I've rolled back to bap as I prefer it.

Thanks

Jon

that is an app more dedicated to a pi as it runs full screen it’s use in a desktop is less common as the resources needed are a esp32 level processor.?



the faq and desktop tab has step by step compile options for setting your resolution - there is also docker projects which will enable the app in a window, which is more desirable for most (hope this helps with ideas)?

Kelly?

It's possibly a bug in pat menu. I sent you a private message to ask a couple more questions.

Hamclock is missing, I haven't checked the community files

Some apps for pi-arm only, but with community .bapp files which apps are missing you expected??

k

Less apps

I'm logging in using Pat menu
The config file in Pat looks the same as the default and that always has my call sign in it.
Where is the other config file that you are referring to??

So there is an issue with the config file after you log in. Are you logging in by manually by editing the config file or using Pat Menu?

Assuming you followed my video on setting up the gateway, it should put you on the map without any additional work. With that said, my station disappeared from the map a month or so back. I updated to the latest version of BPQ at that time and it solved the issue. The version I am currently running is 6.0.24.2. To find your version, you can run "screen -r bpq" which opens the terminal for bpq. The version number will be at the top of the terminal window.

Mike is sorta correct. It will only show stations that have reported in the last four hours. The BPQ software is responsible for the reporting. No actual connections need to be made.

If you are running 6.0.24.2 or later and it still isn't showing up, jump over to the BPQ forum /g/bpq32/topics A lot of knowledgeable folks there that are much more qualified than I to chase down the issue.

Interesting! Many moons ago I found the line "refclock SHM 0 offset 0.5 delay 0.2 refid NMEA" in an article/forum while researching info on adding a GPS to the Pi and added it to BAP. It has always worked well for me but I seldom us WSJTX. Most of my time is spent in JS8Call which is similar. On the rare occasions that I use WSJTX, the offset has always seemed to work. Thanks for the great write up. I'll keep on eye for others that may test and can change the code if needed. You mentioned screenshots but I don't see any attached.

I completed setting up my Pi Zero with Direwolf and BPQ.? It checks out fine.? I am a Winlink sysop.? How do I get my RMS to appear in the Winlink RMS map and to appear in the available packet station list when selecting a RMS station to send a message through.? Thanks, NQ8W
