Yes, there is a difference between ANSRVR and CQSRVR and no, they
are not connected together.<br>
<br>
CQSRVR is the original server and is designed for calling "CQ" and
then listening for a while. It has a limit on how frequently you
can send a message to the group and requires that you must send a
message to remain a member of the group to receive messages.<br>
<br>
ANSRVR is the new server and is designed for sending announcements
to an interested group. There is (currently) no limit on how
frequently you can send a message to the group (designed for
multi-message information passing aka announcements) and there is a
feature to allow quietly monitoring a group (renewing your group
membership without sending a message).<br>
<br>
Bob seems to forget that ANSRVR exists and falls back to his
original CQSRVR documentation, although besides the differences
above, they both accept the same commands. I monitor ANSRVR's FD
year-round, but try to remember to join CQSRVR's FD group on field
day only.<br>
<br>
Oh, and they both should have ack'd your CQ FD. Which one didn't?<br>

<div>I tested out ANSRVR today before I headed out to setup, saw
one other station come up. Is there a difference between the two
besides one ACKS and the other doesn't? Should I sign into both?
Are they connected somehow?</div>
<div>73,</div>
<div>hope to hear some of you during field day, I'll be with my
club, W2HO.<br>
