If the mode is set correctly on the client (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_CF5YHt-CU ) it is 
impossible to choose a wrong mode on connect.
The list of default modes is derived from the actual mode list requested, and does 
not show impossible modes...

Thanks John, 
 
so from what I understand 785b... on connect call from client  is request of the client to server to respond in PSK500 mode which is outside the list, is that correct??
 
problem is that no matter how I set up my client it sends :
KB2PNM-6:1024 KB2PNM:24 785b4321
I updated my server again with Modes (default is PSK250) In Prepare def. I have PSK250,PSK250R,PSK125R,MFSK32,THOR22,MFSK16,THOR8.
Modes are Mail/APRS and PSK250
So I do not know how to set up request from client for PSK250??

Am I the only one having problem like this??

Hi Robert,

There are two issues there:

1. The clientś connect string is not consistent as it requests a start-up mode outside of the list of modes it wants. This is the line saying:

17:46 UTC Nov-4-2011: > Connect: KB2PNM-6:1024 KB2PNM:24 785b4321

Ignoring the last 4 characters that make up the checksum, the mode list is 85b but the startup mode is 7 which is outside of the 85b list.

So I suspect that either on the client there has been a change of the list of modes which has not been updated before choosing the default mode, OR that just before connection a mode was selected from the drop down menu that was outside of the mode list.

Either way, this is a condition that should be managed by the application before sending a connect.

In the mean time, can you try going back to the preferences in the client and re-do an update of the list and re-select the default mode. I suspect that should fix the issue.


Rein, Per,

In the Android version if I encounter that condition (default mode outside of list of modes) I adjust the startup mode to the lowest mode to ensure a reliable connection and then let the system adjust back up afterwards. Plus I alert the operator of that situation.

Maybe a similar logic could be applied or a pop-up windows requesting adjustment be presented in that situation.

2. The line saying Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory: I don;t know where that is coming from but it did not seem to create an issue as all the exchanges with Fldigi and the APRS networked seem to have completed correctly.

Regards,

John
