"I'm not trying to be a pain, but do you understand what a message ACK is?" I think so, All im trying to do is to see if i can get the t2 to send an acknowledgment back to the message sender so that the sender doesn't keep resending.
I guess at this point im not concerned even if the sender receives the ack i just want to see if the T2 will generate an ack. thanks Adrian KD5HTZ --- In [email protected], James Ewen <ve6...@...> wrote: > > On Thu, Jul 16, 2009 at 8:39 PM, Adrian Miura<adrianmi...@...> wrote: > > > I also set COMMENT to : Auto reply from KD5HTZ-9 > > > > So if you want send a message you should get an auto reply. > > From the T2 manual: > > COMMENT <string> > Sets beacon text / comment string, up to 64 characters. > > STATUS <0â255> > Status packets are sent every n transmissions, or if set to 0, status text is > sent as part of the position packet. > > Setting the COMMENT only configures the unit to send a message in the > comment section of a packet, or as a separate status packet, depending > upon the STATUS value. > > I'm not trying to be a pain, but do you understand what a message ACK is? > > See below: > > I sent a message to SPLSTD, and get an ack back from the OT2, the OT2 > responds to my INFO command request, and my UI-View station responds > back to the OT2 with an ack. > > 2009-07-15 17:15:05 MDT: VE6SRV>APRS,WIDE1-1*,WIDE2-2::SPLSTD :cmd info{AF}af > 2009-07-15 17:15:09 MDT: SPLSTD>APOT21,WIDE2-2::VE6SRV :ackAF}af > 2009-07-15 17:15:12 MDT: SPLSTD>APOT21,EDMNTN*,WIDE2-1::VE6SRV > :TEMP:40C VOLT:13.88 RX:14954 FCS:2287 DIGI:41218 CFG1{ag > 2009-07-15 17:15:12 MDT: VE6SRV>APRS,WIDE1-1*,WIDE2-2,::SPLSTD :ackag > > In APRS, only messages ever get acks... nothing else. > > With the messages that you are sending to Keith, we can see acks > coming back via the APRS-IS... the question is, are you seeing Keith's > ack on RF locally? > > James > VE6SRV >
