Re: APRS not digipeating

 

Probably because you cannot use your node call as your aprs call.
?
Other comment:? In the US it is considerd bad form to digipeat on HF. Especially using that path.? I don't know what is widely accepted in VK land.

Re: Tracker and KISS Port Query.

 

Hrmm if your tracker is on a serial port, then I think IOADDR is moot.

The IOADDR here is for mostly kiss over TCP.

Second, on the tracker, not sure if you're a teensy tracker or an official, but I think that its the same. If you want to force robust baud, do it before you set the modem into kiss mode.

Changing IF Filter during forwarding connect script

 

Does anyone know how to change the Icom IF filter within a forward script?
?
The Rigcontrol scan line options include the filter data, and the filter is applied when scanning.? But, when the forward script is initiated the filter applied at the time is the filter used.? If the script just happen to initiate at the time a scanned frequency with the filter is being scaned the filter remains applied.
?
?
Or, change the filter in a terminal session after you attach to a port.

Re: Question on RELAYAPP=BBS

That should work. The messages are queued to BBS RMS which needs Use B2 set.

In the forwarding script for BBS RMS connect to the RMS call of the station that has a working CMS connection.

If the internet is down, and,
When you have FALLBACKTORELAY and RELAYAPP=BBS set,? BPQ could then automatically queue messages to that user and forward over HF.? (with the proper forward script, of course.)
?
?
Can this already be done automatically?? Looking at the docs---

RMS Relay Emulation

This allows BPQ to provide similar facilities to RMS Relay. If you run an RMS application with fall-back to RMS Relay set, but run RELAYAPPL=BBS instead of RMS Relay, when the Internet is down messages are diverted to the BBS, from where they can be forwarded out over any available links (Pactor, Winmor, Packet, etc) to a site that has Internet, or stored for local retrieval.

?

I don't see this happening automatically.? I have to queue the message manually, and it uses BBS protocol and not Winlink protocol.? Or will setting the Use B2 Protocol only do this?? When connecting to the RMS call of the HF station...the station connects to the CMS but BPQ does not send the user/pass to send the message, or retrieve messages.? In fact, BPQ does not recognize the coonnect and disconnect prior to RMS Trimode identifying itself and getting to the CMS prompt.

?

Maybe I don't yet understand what happens once the message is sent to the BBS.? How can something like this be done?

This part is resolved.

If it is possible to designate the HF station to forward Winlink messages that 'Fell back to the BBS' to be automatcially forwarded that would be great.
