Hi Patrick, Most of the needed commands likely already existing in the PC-ALE MMI, I will add whatever doesn't. such as access to releasing and regaining resource to handoff to MultiPSK control of PTT for an ALE400 session or for that matter any follow on mode if used after PC-ALE in INLINK with a NORMAL ALE session as it can already be configured by a user that always wants follow on to be in a particular non-ALE protocol modeautomaticaly. /s/ Steve, N2CKH www/n2ckh.com/PC_ALE_FORUM/ --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, Patrick Lindecker f6...@... wrote: Hello Steve and Andy, If you are interested in testing and Patrick is interested in adding an enabling feature to generate some TCP/IP commands at the proper time, then we should be anble to bring about a more complete solution by making use ohe Man Machine Interface (MMI) in PC-ALE via Telnet. This is a good idea and I already saw the Telnet procedure (to be able to emulate it), but at the present time I have some other interests. Perhaps in the future. 73 Patrick

It would be no problem to STOP and START the scanning process vis commands from MultiPSK when it detects ALE400, however there is at present no MMI command to release the RESOURCES to move forward with control of RS-232 port lines for PTT etc., however that could be added.

I made an attempt to call on the 80 meter frequencies, but I need to solve a nasty little RFI problem with a smoke alarm before going any further :-p. philw de ka1gmn On Sun, Nov 22, 2009 at 7:01 PM, Andy obrien k3uka...@gmail.com wrote: I have now added 3584 and 3596 US6 to my scan for the evening.
