When I start soundmodem, it sends out several transmissions.
They are addressed to "QST-0" and identify my workstation.

Is there a simple way to suppres these?  They are fairly long
and sometimes I just want to listen to packets (like on an APRS freq).

Just a guess (and I'm probably totally wrong on this), but do you
have Samba configured on that machine?

I remember some people ended up with SMB broadcasts going out on
that interface.  The fix was to tweak the Samba configuration so
that it didn't use that networking interface.  By default Samba
broadcasts on all interfaces as I recall.

That's right. Also, on many newer distributions, I've also found that the mDNS service (the generic name for Apple's "Bonjour" auto-discovery protocol) broadcasts on all interfaces, too.
