Re: Netrom

 

The original NETROM was an eprom for the TNC2 that was sold by Software 2000 ( if I remember correctly). As far as I know it is no longer available.

TheNet was an (allegedly illegal) copy. Not sure if it is still supported.

Re: Updating position in config

 

That makes sense. I¡¯ll keep checking. It probably isn¡¯t setup for frequent refreshing/syncing considering these server stations are typically not moving around.

Thanks, LCM

Re: Updating position in config

 

Thanks, Mark. I found the old grid square in the WL2KREPORT section of the bpq32.cfg file. I changed it to our new gridsqare but the node is still showing up with updated time stamps on ?with the old position. It is correct on , however. Could it be set somewhere else too?

Online BPQ Network Map Not Showing Stations

All:

Is there an issue with the online BPQ Network Map? The site loads but there are no stations.?

Updating position in config

 

We are moving our club BPQ packet station to a new site. I tried updating the LOCATOR to the new grid square and I changed the BTEXT to the new lat/long but I can't seem to get the location to update on aprs.fi (via winlink). Any suggestions? Where does winlink get the position report?

Possible Bug report

 

John, can you check the code for "Send P Msgs to more than one BBS " and be sure it works as intended.
?
?
Gary, K7EK, and I sent several messages back and forth today to confirm what was happening, and this is it.
?
I have Send P Msgs to more than one BBS checked.
Gary and I are AXUDP linked and forwarding partners.
Gary and I are both on the latest beta, 6.0.24.42
?
Gary sent a personal message to me addressed to n5mdt -at- n5mdt.#stx.tx.usa.noam
My bbs received the message, forwarded it to all my forwarding partners that are also
in #stx.tx.usa.noam then changed the status to PF
?
I would think that if the message was received at the recipients HomeBBS then the
forwarding should end, and the status changed to PN.? (This is what happens without
that option checked.)
?
Gary sent another message to someone else in #stx.tx.usa.noam and my BBS properly
forward the message to all of my forwarding partners also in #stx.tx.usa.noam and
marked the status PF.
?
?
One thing I also noticed is the when the Send P Msgs to more than one BBS? was checked
and I replied to one of his messages my BBS would not send it back to him directly, but
would send it a different route even though I have his call in the TO field of his forwarding
record.?? But, that may be Net/Rom causing that.? I have not yet sent enough messages
to diagnose that..? With Send P Msgs to more than one BBS is unchecked then messages
are sent directly to Gary.
?
?
We are both going to save some logs in the event you need them.
?
Let me know what else you require.
?
Mark, N5MDT

Re: UPDATING BPQ 32 from 6.0.23.1 to BETA

 

Hello Gary;

Im showing you K7EK in Links, Routes, Nodes as a Node to Node etc. Has been a very stable connection here.

Thanks for your patience, I did mention give it? a week or so. Now I think ive got caught up Version wise.? 73
