Hi Rein, I wish I could be more specific. It has been a few weeks since I played with pskmail, and even then I was confused. I set up fldigi as per the manual. The problem I was having was that I could ping and I could connect (I connected successfully a few different servers). Automatic mode switching seemed to work OK, but after a few exchanges the servers would stop responding to my client. This could happen in any mode. I reasoned that as the Java client is cross-platform and (presumably) the same under windows or linux, and the hardware remained unchanged, then it must be the fldigi setup that was the problem. I found the fact that the problem did not appear to be isolated to a single mode or type of mode interesting. Since then I have started working high in the mountains in the Massif Central in France. I have brought some /P equipment with me, plus data interface etc. This laptop is not very good but would probably work. I should have a telscopic pole arriving in the next few days, if you would like, I could try to replicate the problem once it has arrived? 73, Dave F/M0MYA/P On Fri, Aug 20, 2010 at 11:22 PM, Rein Couperus <rein@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > What do you mean exactly Dave... which parameters are you referring to? > > Rein PA0R > >>I wish that it was possible to export the settings from the linux >>client so that I could import them under windows! >> >>73, >>Dave F/M0MYA/P > >
