<DIV>I guess my question would be how are the messages formatted when sent
out the serial port of the T2 ( I suppose I should test this in my own
house rather than ask aloud on the sig).... consider this:</DIV>
<DIV>Remote station sends me a message.</DIV>
<DIV>I get the message and the T2 sends it out the serial port.</DIV>
<DIV>Remote station never hears my ACK</DIV>
<DIV>Remote station sends message again.</DIV>
<DIV>I get the message and the T2 sends it out the serial port.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Is the message number included in the text so I can keep up with what's
a dupe and what's new?</DIV>

hardware solution would be acceptable, the Tracker2 might do what you
want. It'll display incoming messages and send ACKs, and you can
send messages from the command prompt with automatic retries. It
only queues one outgoing message at a time though, due to lack of buffer
space. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
