Hi Per, many thanks for your reply and your work to create a new protocol for a pskmail network. Yes, i have see that sometimes from 1 to 6 AM i hear your beacon; very interesting the propagation in 30m. Regarding MRTG... is not particularly difficult to install and use. MRTG to show the data in a graphic, want an external data, that you can get in SNMP protocolol or with an external script. To shows pskmail traffic i have created some scripts that process the data and write there in a file that MRTG read every 5min to update graphics, because in not possible to get these data in SNMP. With an external script you can show in a graphic all data that you want. -First is necessary to configure SNMP and running the SNMP server in the linux machine. -Second to install and configure MRTG package. -Third create an external script, in shell, perl, c++ and so on.. that process your data -Fourth configure /etc/mrtg.cfg with new sections and rebuild mrtg. You can see the MRTG documentation from this link: http://oss.oetiker.ch/mrtg/doc/index.en.html If you want other informations write me.

Ever since we all crowded the same frequency on 30 meters I have monitored your beacons with interest. Its been interesting as it has helped give a better understanding of the current condx on 30meters. One thing I have noted is that I can almost hear you around the clock, its difficult at around 1-3 AM but sometimes it works then too. I will study those graphs now and see what they can give. Is MRTG difficult to use? 73 de Per, sm0rwo P.s. The crowded situation has helped me start thinking about network access algorithms/protocols and Rein and I have an ongoing discussion about how to best document and do that. Will send that document to the list later. -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG. Version: 7.5.518 / Virus Database: 269.21.7/1319 - Release Date: 08/03/2008 10.14
