[App_rpt-users] Quick question on usability

[Corey Dean]

I have one acid box that I had the win system on receive only recently to show some out of area hams how things sounded!  They were impressed.  This was a default install so I could show the differences in the two distros.  With the node in receive only and hitting the touch tone to call up the ID, it also went over the win system while I was in receive only. Of course someone copied the CW and told me my repeater was id'ing on the 'reflector'.  I just disconnected.  Normally I change it to id locally only when called by touch tones.

I just tried it on 27468, entering *227722, then I ID'd using my hand held radio on each repeaters input (27468, then 27722), then back on 27468 I did *80, the cwid of 27468 went out on the air of both repeaters.  These 2 systems do not share any hardware.  Both are running the code downloaded after the Feb 9, 2012 updates.

Thanks for looking at it Jim!

I have made good attempt at re-creating this problem, to no avail.

I have 2 nodes on a development server. 2007 and 2008. I can do a *22008 on 2007 and then do a *80 on 2007
and it only goes out on 2007. Is that the scenario that you were referring to?

I have also observed that some ids in monitoring mode do get passed on as if I was connected in transceive mode.

I seem to remember that this has been like this for some time. I guess nobody posted it to the bugs page.

No, normally (non-command) initiated ID's are always local.

The problem you are (most likely) seeing is that the command (the *80) in this case is getting
re-distributed to all connected nodes in the normal manner, even though the link(s)
is(are) connected in monitor-only mode.

Darn you for finding a design flaw!! :-)

I will attempt to verify that locally-initiated commands on a monitor-connected link
get distributed. If they do, they wont for long.. :-)

I don't want to be a bad operator at the moment… As I go about checking bandwidth and jitter, etc on my setup… I'd like to connect to an active Hub, but just in eavesdrop mode.
But I've noticed that if I connect with the *2 command, that if I inadvertently then do a *80, that the ID goes out on the link that was connected with the *2.
Is this true anytime my node decides to ID?
