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
