Re: renumbering
The only way is to set Max Message Number (in Housekeeping) to a bit above the number of messages on the BBS and then run housekeeping. Remember to set it back to normal afterwards!

Re: Netrom BCAST and Polling Frequency?

In your RF Ports add the following line to stop the polling: NOKEEPALIVES=1 You can add it any where in the port, I have always had mine as follows: CHANNEL=A NOKEEPALIVES=1 Let us know if you still have problems, but this should stop it. Just don't place it in the AXIP port. 73 Mike Melnik-N9PMO BPQ32 Groups.io Group Moderator -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. |

That totally makes sense.? My neighbor is running all of his packet stuff with a low power budget (solar) nodes. And come to think of it, most of his nodes routes do not work very well -- let me offer to buy him a bigger solar panel.

No worries, John.? To tell you the truth, it was kind of fun playing "Sherlock Holmes".
hi hi Red:? I didn't have an opportunity to check other interfaces besides KISS, so I don't know if UZ7HO's soundcard driver shows the fault.? Easy way to check, is to connect to your own BBS, RMS, or CHAT calls from your RF ports and digipeat from someone back to yourself.? If it redirects to your node call after two SABMs, then you'll know. 73 - Rick KE0GB |

Re: Pactor wont answer
Ray, it appears that you are mixing two different digital ports (ARDOP and SCS PACTOR) into one defined port. You need to split the two up into proper Ports deffinitions. See the BPQ docs for ARDOP and SCS PACTOR. They have different drivers associated for each digital protocol. For me, I have the SCS PACTOR defined in the first Port which is associated with the ACC radio connection. The next Port defines the other digital mode (ARDOP or VARA) and that is associated with my radio's internal soundmodem. Both Ports use the same radio and have a common Interlock number. INTERLOCK=1 That same Interlock number is defined in the new rigcontrol section outside of the 2 unique Ports as RADIO=1. For me, that is the radio's USB COM interface. Your setup may be different so reading the doc's is a must. On Thu, Feb 11, 2021 at 1:30 PM Ray Adkins <N3hym1@...> wrote: I should add , calling out on the pactor port works fine. |

For now I use each of those devices alone, so I re-connect their audio cables when change from pactor to HF packet at the same radio in the local ham club. (Each device connects to the same MIC & headphones jacks on the front panel of the radio, FT-1000MP.) All works well. I'd like to avoid re-connecting cables when change working modes, but to stay on the safe side regarding possible damages to either the club's radio and the modem & interface. (SCS 7400 and RIGblaster Advantage use two USB jacks of the computer, the former uses an external 12VDC power supply while the latter is energized by the USB jack. I suppose that in case of binding their audio cables together before the radio's jacks, there might appear some parasitic currents in the loop or like, and I wonder what might be the safest to do. Some folks here suggested to think about some filtering/shielding electronics in between the radio and that 'joint' cabling ...) Any experience with? Misko YT7MPB, YU7BPQ |

On the other side, in your recent post you did not have some similar in your pactor port. Could it be that something like that prevents listening for incoming pactor connections?

These are sent on all open links. I think that Node to Node links should be kept open, mainly to prove that the connection actually works and to detect a lost neighbour quickly. Without this you can end up with Nodes in your table that can never be reached. I feel that a couple of short messages every 3 minutes is a small price to pay for this improved network reliability. If you really don't want this you can set it so that links will only be opened when needed by setting NOKEEPALIVES=1 in the port config. 73, John On 11/02/2021 21:26, Christopher Maness wrote:
