Yes, this is a known problem. For example, the driver starts transmitting before the FA command is complete on the first attempt to connect, whether or not a band change is involved. It's amazing that no one caught this in beta tests. 73, matt W6NIA On Sat, 07 Jan 2012 02:07:58 -0500, you

Matt I use Airmail with my K3 and an SCS Pactor modem to connect to the Winlink system. Using the pre-defined settings in Airmail it works perfectly to connect to any of the mail boxes within range, no tweaking of the RIT, etc. needed. It looks like RMS Express is the cause of the issue, which I

Matt, Did you make a typo on that MD; command - if that is really what is being sent, that is a GET - it should be MD6; for normal sideband in data mode. The rest all looks correct, but there may be some subtle problem with the order in which the commands are sent. The mystery deepens. 73,
