LinFBB [All radio-ports rety out rapidly!]
by Dick 23 Mar '05

23 Mar '05

I've progressed from the DOSFBB, WinFBB to LinFBB over the years ... it is very good software and with Linux, it is very stable ... I am using SuSe 9.0 with latest updates ... LinFBB is v7.04j ... PTC-II Pro with pactor and two packet daughterboard tnc's ... PK-232's in KISS mode ... The Pactor channel runs without any problems, even when radio ports have a problem ... The Telnet sessions work without any problem, even when radio ports have a problem ... A PTC-II is set up in PORT.SYS only as shown below ... A PK-232 TNC is connected in KISS mode as shown below ... AXPORT file reflects this and also the AX.CONFIG file below ... PROBLEM ~~~~~~~~ If I restart the PTC-II (power off and then on again) and reboot LinFBB, I can make a connection to another BBS on packet and forward ... This will work for a random period then disconnect (rf link 'may' not be so good??) .. If I try to repeat the RF connection, the PTC-II will start and then rapidly try and connect for the number of retries set and then disconnect .. Any further packet connects, incoming or outgoing, has the same rapid retries and then disconnect .. To make it work again I must resart the PTC-II (power off and then on again) and reboot LinFBB ... On HF I use PK-232's in KISS mode - they give the same result ... Can anyone help me please ??????? 73, Dick ZS6RO email: zs6ro(a)telkomsa.net web : http://www.zs6ro.no-ip.org bbs : telnet://zs6ro.no-ip.org:6300 ============================= PORT.SYS #~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ # Com- axports max #TNC NbCh Device MultCh.

I seems the DVD is double layer and there is a lot more on it than the CD's So I guess we would be talking about 10 cd's which SuSE thought was a bit much Roger G6CKR

KPSK <-> gMFSK - Soundcardproblem?
by pzabelt＠t-online.de 29 Dec '04

29 Dec '04

Hallo OMs! After a lot of "wasted" time trying to make a PSK31-QSO on the HF-bands I checked PSK31 with a friend in the near on UHF! First I wrote his transmission with KPSK - very fine! Then I tried to transmit - He said "terrible signal!". My Signal was very loud but there was only noise on the frequency! After 1 hour I tried to transmit with gMFSK: All clear! Very fine Signal! ???? I believe, that this behaviour can't be affected by the soundcard!?!?!? Can anybody help me, I want to use KPSK for PSK31, because it is more convinient I think! Looking for help! Yours Peter, DL3VPZ. PS: I've checked the KPSK-list for soundcard-problems but I think, nothing belongs to my problem?!?

PSK-31 and FT-897?
by pzabelt＠t-online.de 27 Dec '04

27 Dec '04

Hallo Hams! A little OT: Is there anybody out there using the FT-897 in digi-modes? I want to know, if I must use DIG (with PSK31-U or PSK31-L) or USB resp. LSB to transmit PSK-31-signals. I tried PSK-transmitting during the last three days, but nobody gave me an answer to my CQ...! TNX in advance! Peter, DL3VPZ

sorry for crash in hf-0.6.4, fixed in hf0.6.5
by Günther Montag 11 Dec '04

11 Dec '04

Hello friends Due to not storing the rx window, after some minutes of rx (depending on amount of data) hf-0.6.4 died of buffer overflow. I fixed that in 0.6.5. The calibration programs have now bettwe output and write the configuration automagically, the mailbox feature has been improved, tested successfully also with repeated connects in Pactor and Amtor ARQ and FEC. Welcome to download at http://hfterm.sf.net, please all bugs and flames to the hfterm hackers list. 73 !! -- Günther Montag Safari.Doktor(a)addcom.de

PSK
by Gervase Chavasse 04 Dec '04

04 Dec '04

I know this has been asked before but I have not seen a satisfactory answer. Has anyone got gpsk31, as provided with SUSE 9.1, working properly? I can see that one needs to change the personal details within the config file, but is there anything else I need to do? The comport setting appears to be correct as I can trigger the transmitter by clicking the tx button but nothing appears on the receive screen. And what about the frequency setting? The default setting is 1000. Hz? In case I get no answer to that, does anyone have another recommendation for a good linux psk program? And if so, where to get it? Gervase gw4urj

(Tom Sailer's pactor, amtor, gtior, rtty program with tcp-interface, to be used also al maibox e.g. with F6FBB) ... is there! If you use the mailbox feature, or the calibration programs, you should download this new version, there are improvements & bugfixes. Mailbox is tested with Pactor FEC & ARQ, Antor ARQ. Calibration writes now automatically to the config file. Have fun! -- Günther Montag Safari.Doktor(a)addcom.de
