[aprssig] Something still wrong the new AGW UIDIGI ????

[hasan schiers]

It's not just you. I tested it yesterday (latest copy) and it has all sorts 
of problems. It is NOT ready for prime time by a long shot. (It is a great 
idea...it just needs some 'work')

It doesn't append the digi station call to the stream in WIDENn-n. It 
doesn't retain it's settings...if you tell it not to enable digi on port 2, 
it does it anyway.

The QRT* is shown to indicate enforcement of the hop count limit (which 
doesn't work right either.)

I would suggest that we all be real patient with this one...it's going to 
take a while.

In the mean time, digi_ned works wonderfully, albeit in linux.

73,

p.s., your message would be better posted to the agw mailing lists.
