Re: mh flags


 

John,

I'm sure it's a trivial matter but that doesn't quite gel with what I'm observing. The only RPR station in this list is W7BMH but I see dots next to K7SKI and KB9KC (both HFP stations).

Could it be some glitch with the switchmodes statement? I.e. the mode gets switched to robust packet just as the call is added to the heard list perhaps?

I'm using DRIVER=SCSTracker and SWITCHMODES 8 on that port.

PS Don't waste your valuable time on this, I was just curious is all.

On some HF drivers the dot behind the callsign equals that call was heard.
The +? equals a connection was made.

That is expected behavior. I know the Robust Packet hostmode Tracker DSP TNC driver does it, so probably the same for the Pactor drivers.
John can elaborate/correct me.

I've tried you the other afternoon on 20m RP, but no joy. Tad too close for 20m this time of year, but should be easy(ier) this Fall/Winter.
