Hi Goody,

I think the QSL is working properly. I have a WB5CON-3 client running into an FT-817 into a dummy load here in the shack. It is sending unconnected position beacons periodically and the server is QSLing.

Hello Pär,

Thanks for your response. I think Rein is on vacation, so I figured I may have to wait awhile, but your thoughts are appreciated!

I've been watching the coding change with the random delay before QSLing here and I've seen a couple times now where a beacon has been QSLed by both my server node and WB5CON. It's nice to see who can see who.

I'm going to dig into the code more tonight. I'm able to do spot coding here and there, but I don't have an understanding of how the *whole* thing works yet. Plus my Perl is rusty, but it's coming back quickly. Luckily Rein's style and naming conventions are relatively easy to follow. I'm going to enhance some of the logging and create solutions for some of the feature requests I made earlier. Learn by doing, the open source way :-) I'd be willing to code everything into the new 0.5 server code when Rein gets back, if desired.

Fred WB5CON, I've noticed most (all?) of your QSLs have been "QSL WB3CON-3 de WB3CON" when QSLing KB8SKP beacons. Perhaps that $1 variable/parameter holds something else sometimes? I'll have to look closer.
