BPQ beacon with FEC pactor.
#bbs
#bpqconfig
Hello group,?
Is there a way to make a beacon broadcast possible in FEC for advertising a PACTOR connect in BPQ??
?
Something thought me to first search for a similar topic but couldn't find one. ;-)

Problem with template
Hi dear john
?
I've tried using custom templates but I've found a few problems: the first: I load an image into my template with the following code
The text is converted into a url that seems correct but the image doesn't appear. If I copy/paste the link into the browser, the browser tries to save a file ? the second problem: When viewing a message with the template, the message is displayed in the template but the tag {FormFolder} is not interpreted and replaced by the required part of url ? These templates work perfectly with winlink express 1.7. ? Best 73s Claude F4IKH |
Re: How to install QtTerm on Ubuntu 24.04
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýYes, that does assume knowledge of Qt development.I started with a new install? of Linux Mint 22 and had to run sudo apt install git libqt5serialport5-dev qtmultimedia5-dev ?git clone cd QtTermTCP qmake make I'll update the documentation. 73, John On 15/03/2025 18:15, Kevin via

Re: How to install QtTerm on Ubuntu 24.04
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHello Kevin, I found John's instructions at to be quite useful. Regardless if you are unfamiliar with linux and manual compiles it is typically not necessary to compile from source. Simply download the appropriate executable from John's repository at . There I see x86 32bit QtTermTCP and x64 64bit QtTermTCP64 both at
recent version 0.0.0.78 which should work on Ubuntu AMD / Intel
based systems. No package type install needed. Just place the binary in a subdirectory and launch it. Configuring options under the Setup tab will create and / or update the config file in the same subdirectory. If you have reason to compile from source then there are a number
of dev and other dependencies that must be installed prior to
compiling. 73 de Rich WA3WLH On 3/15/25 14:15, Kevin via groups.io

How to install QtTerm on Ubuntu 24.04
Hi Linux Wizards
?
Trying to install QtTerm on Ubuntu 24.04 come up against a brick wall
?
Not the greatest of instructions see below
?
If you need to run on other Linux or similar systems you may be able to compile from source. Download , unzip and run qmake then make?
?
A proper set of instructions would be nice

Re: Does BPQ-BBS Whitepages support hierarchical addresses longer than 6 characters?
It should now discard any record with an address longer than 6. This was recently fixed (in version 6.0.24.56).

Re: Adding port number in BBS log
There is noting in the log. Of the 5-6 stations 2 of them start around 1100, the rest nothing.
?
Even the Vara log shows nothing from 0300 until 1100 except for one incoming connection that was successful.
?
?
Still looking.? I am thinking a port locks up, but the BPQ BBS log normally show when a port is in use and the forwarding fails so I am still looking...

Re: BBS Error not connecting on all our linbpq nodes with latest 2 versions.
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýThere are a couple of messages saying "KISS client application 0 has gone away." This suggests that BPQ may be closing. Is there anything on the console or debug log to indicate BPQ is restarting?73, John On 14/03/2025 19:26, Heber Soto, NP4JN

Re: Adding port number in BBS log
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýYes, interval timers start when the BBS starts and run at the same interval even if incoming connects are made. So if you start at 0615 and have 3600 seconds it should try at? 0715, 0815 etc. It won't try if the BBS is already connected but otherwise you should always see the connect attempt in the BBS log even if, for instance, the port is in use or you are outside all TIMES blocks so the connect immediately fails. Is there nothing at all in the BBS log when the connect should take place?73, John On 14/03/2025 18:34, Mark Taylor wrote:

Yes, please.? Trying to diagnose this...

Although I have interval times set randomly between 3600-4200 on my HF ports I have 5 hours of no connection attempts from 0600 to 1100 (UTC) and cannot figure out why. All works normal on the AXIP ports.
It is a Windows 10 machine that reboots at 0530 utc and start mail at 0615.
I use 0000-2359 in most of the Times boxes, and Times xxxx-yyyy in the scripts. All scripts have multiple times blocks in them.
?
I am assuming Interval timers start upon start of BPQMail. Do they reset any other time than a connect attempt? Do they reset anytime a forwarding record is changed, or upon incoming connection from that station?? Or any other time?

Anything wrong obvious to you?

Re: BBS Error not connecting on all our linbpq nodes with latest 2 versions.
This is occurring using RF only not telnet.
?
We are calling the node first it will respond but when we issue a command like "?" or "BBS" it would disconnect.
?
We are also call the BBS directly by its Call Sign or Alias same result it would just disconnect.
?
We are trying direct connect C call.

The following traffic was originated where I connected to a node via IP telnet then from the node issued C 2 !WP4QNQ-11 to the BBS:
