[drats_users] CHAT TOO LONG

[Dave Cooley]

You might try a file transfer and see if it is with all DRATS functions. I
have cut and pasted large text files in the chat window before and had no
problem. It may be a hardware/comm uissue..

No, I confirm that chat strings longer then 40 characters are not sent. The
time RTX remain in TX is lower than a little message like "QRZ???". I'm on
latest beta.
