Hi All,
I've never been able to successfully use YAPP with Winpack over Telnet, it
gets so far and stalls. Likewise, compressed upload/download is a failure.
With regard to unproto broadcasts. They don't work over the internet in a
broadcast fashion, like they do on RF. My telnet users do the same as my
HF users, connect and list headers. With telnet the connection speed is
such that any performance degradation is close to nil. On HF at 0k3, FBB
sends an almost continuous stream of headers, in the case of a station
that hasn't connected for a while. In my early days of HF I timed a
continuous stream of headers for seven minutes! (this was after I disabled
the WDT to see how long a transmission would last). Not unexpectedly, the
receiving station missed some and it started all over again. I don't
accept unproto requests on HF or telnet.
Re Bob's system and BBS prompts, I sent Bob screen dumps of my Winpack's
configs way back, must be two years or more, and they've worked fine until
recently. That nobody else is reporting the problems Bob is seeing would
more than suggest the problem is his end and I'm sure Bob agrees with
that.
A thought, Bob. Did you install any new software about the time Winpack
started playing up?
Cheers ... Ray vk2tv
