Hi all. I can provide a little more info on this as it was one of our nodes that was the "foreign node". Ok I believe he connected to node 2357 which is currently running 0.192 App_Rpt. I do believe it does send the newkey commands. Dont know it this classifies as a "really old node"or not. Anyway we were receiving a repeater tail from his node after every transmission at our end. Since he connected in rx mode we did not get any announcement that he connected. Steve ZFT: Is there an easy way to upgrade these nodes without having to go to the sites? A while back I tried the astupdate thing and it told me the version was too old and I had to do a reinstall. This would mean a trip to the sites some of which are a few hours of driving. I would like to be up to date to be in sync with everyone. Jon VA3RQ Stephen Rodgers wrote:

Been testing this and the far end nodes report that they get get repeater tones & hang time from me if I try to just 'monitor' them using the *2 monitor functionality..
*3 works as expected but when I try to use *2 I'm getting those unexpected results and the far end is experiencing some grief/confusion.
Am I misunderstanding how this should work? Or are there any common gotchyas where you'd think you're just monitoring but it's doing more than that? Sorry this is a bit vague.. I probably need to bring up another note and test this and report step by step what's happening.
Thanks
Steve
Versions of app_rpt.c which are older than version 0.199 might be sending telemetry to foreign nodes under some conditions, especially if the foreign node is running a really old version of app_rpt.c which does not use the new keying scheme.
You should check what version of app_rpt.c you are running and see if the foriegn node is running a really old version of app_rpt.c
