Thanks Andy,
Having found it with your help, I can not find a tag for igate call, I
have added one I found in another configuration.xml that was igate
yes, but adding this did not seem to make the box ticked in 1.8.1.
I guess tags do not need to be in any particular order being an XML
file, maybe that is a wrong assumption, as I do not have a tag for
igate call, do we know what this tag should look like?.
We are doing our best to get round the problem.
Thanks for any help.
Regards
Vic

In win xp the file *configuration.xml* is located in
C:\Documents and Settings\/Proprietario/\pskmail\
where /Proprietario /is your settings folder.

Hi all,
it seems that jPSKmail 1.8.1 don't save the Igate call and so
sometimes the Igate don't work, but opening the configuration.xml
file and manual setting the I-gate call, then it works.

Strange, it works o.k. here (se attached screen pic).
One peculiarity using the Igate is that you must use a
different Igate call
for every server or Igate, the APRS backbone does not allow
multiple connections for one call.
In Europe, use the euro.aprs2.net server. It provides a
rotating connection which prevents
too heavy load on a specific server.
The netherlands.aprs2.net server is down momentarily because
the university building
has been sold (for the same reason PI4TUE does not exist
anymore...)

Hello Rein,
sorry to have so many questions, I am working on multiple
systems and they have different issues with all of them.
I may revert back to a 1.x system at work then, as long as we
can get the igate working.
I have 1.8.1 at the home location, unfortunately when I
upgraded from 1.5.26 to 1.8.1, the Igate will not connect, it
was working well with the old version, I have entered an igate
call sign and ticked the status box, but nothing happens, if I
go to preferences and save, then close and open jpskmail, the
igate call and tick boxed are no longer there, could this be a
compatibility issue with the old config file and the
later version?, or is the igate function no longer supported?.
I am trying to create another igate that supports dominox to
help the system.
Regards
Vic

Vic,
unfortunately jpskmail version 2 does not support DominoEx,
as the modem is not available in java (yet?).
That is the main reason why I am concentrating on version 1
with fldigi at the moment...

Hi Rein,
thanks for the information, I have a copy of jpskmail 2.1.0-f
running on a PC at my work location, I was hoping to leave
this running as an additional gate for traffic, it has been
running for some time now and seems to work well, is there a
newer version of this second generation software that supports
domino ?.
Regards
Vic

Vic,
9A1CRA and OE5RTL are supporting DominoEx modes. You can check
that easily using the 'ping'
and Inquiry ('ctrl-I') commands. Set the client to DOMEX22
mode, set the server call and do a ctrl-I.
When the particular server hears you you will get a
confirmation. Be sure to set TXrsid ON in fldigi.
You can make the client stay in DomEx mode by setting the
proper default mode in Preferences->Mode.
It helps to send pings at the start of the minute (around
X+10s), then the server has a minute
left before it changes mode again after receiving your TXid.
When afloat, you can set the computer time using the 'latest
fix time' on the APRS tab.
Depending on the time of day and the distance to the server,
you will see that DomEx modes
suffer less from multipath distortion than PSKxxxR modes. They
are also less crytical
with respect to frequency drift.
You can see which servers are active on
http://pskmail.org/web/pskmailusers.php.
You may be too close to many of the German/Dutch servers...
Your APRS page shows you are being heard by 9A1CRA...

Hello,
I have 1.8.1 and the latest fldigi in use for our trip in a
couple of weeks, all working as expected.
I can see the dominox modes are now available, and thought
that it may be worth trying this for APRS, I went into the
mode tab in jpskmail and selected a dominox mode, fldigi
changed mode, but shortly after it changed back to 500R before
the beacon time came round. How would I make it stay in the
selected mode?.
I am currently only seeing beacons from two servers OE5RTL and
9A1CRA, are they the only ones on currently?
Do these have code versions in use that will allow decode of
the domiox modes?
I was just thinking that if I get time, and changing modes is
not too difficult, I could try this mode at some point to see
if there is any difference in performance.
Thanks for any advise.
Regards
Vic
