Oh, monlink knows nothing of non-DPlus reflectors.
I'd just like to find the docs that let me know what commands I can
send via netcat and how they relate to the commands I can send over
RF.
I had *meant* to do this before this evening, but alas ....
Didn't realize the RAC pres took a turn at NCS for the net ...
interesting. No one in the hierarchy of that other national
association to our south is even aware of DV modes. :-)

Hi Peter,
I am listening to the Can-net at the moment (just started about 20 minutes ago), so perhaps I will hear you on here later tonight?
I cant speak much to the coordination with monlink as I dont use it on our repeater, but I can confirm the following commands will work with g2_link:
The following will unlink local module C:
/usr/bin/nc -u -w 1 10.0.0.2 30003 <<EOF
um C
EOF
and the following will link the local module C, to XRF044A ,
/usr/bin/nc -u -w 1 10.0.0.2 30003 <<EOF
lm CXRF044A
EOF
Of course, you can also use the URCall setting on your radio to link and unlink as well. The format is similar to Dplus, just use T (terminate) and O (open) instead of U (unlink) and L (link). For example, if your URCall is set to XRF044AO , assuming your other settings are correct, will make g2_link attempt to connect to XRF044A on the module it was received.
Hope this helps.
Rob,
VY1RG

Forgot about Cannet tonight. Started to look at this to construct a
connect script to XLX044A ... but where are things like the um and
lm defined.
I figure "um X" is "unlink module X" and "cm X" the same but connect ...
So I would send "lm BXLX044A" to port 30003 on our IP with netcat and
then um later? Being sure to adjust monlink's schedule to "leave a
hole" for all the g2_link stuff?
