[Dstar] VK3RMM linking or lack of

[Richard Hoskin]

Hi Nik,

 

VK3RMM is running on a 3G network and as such its connection is less
reliable than ADSL. 

Each time the 3G connection is lost and re-established (which happens on
average twice a day) it takes between 2 to 4 hours for the VK3RMM Gateway to
synchronise and re-establish the connection with the D-Star network.

 

There was also a small issue with reflector 3 over the past few days that
was fixed today.

 

Cheers

Richard

Subject: [Dstar] VK3RMM linking or lack of

 

G'day all, 

 

Is anyone aware of a possible problem with VK3RMM Mt Macedon over the past
week or so? 

 

My observations...

 

I've observed that perhaps the VK3RMM port C has unlinked itself regularly,
particularly since mid last week. I'm aware that the C ports are user
linkable but even given the default configuration of it being linked to
REF003-C, it appears to me that this C port is dropping off regularly -
often during QSO's. Today it would appear that the linking of VK3RMM-C to
REF003-C may have dropped off altogether and isn't recovering. QSYing to
VK3RWN-C is a quick albeit temporary solution to picking up the QSO again.
I'm becoming very familiar with Robin's voice :-)  It's not a showstopper -
just an enquiry. 

 

It's my observation that the B port is hanging in there and performing ok. 

 

Thanks.

 

Cheers,
