[drats_users] More testing with ax.25

[Rick (N1RCW)]

Have done some more Rf tests via 1 hop digipeating. For the most part it is 
pretty stable ,say out of 7 msgs (Emails) sent 4 were received and completed. 
The others would  time out and stay in the outbox. My question is there error 
correcting retries? If the RF channel is busy will the system allow to resend 
the missed packet? The receiving end would show waiting for 1st block on those 
that would not go or a certain % would make it but then stop.

Both stations have the Block size set at a min of 32.  next step is to try some 
of the other timing settings.. The TNC that is digipeating is also set at 255 
Paclen to allow a larger amount of bytes to pass through per transmission. I 
wonder if that amount is still to small for the "Block" to go through.Both 
stations have a strong signal into the digipeater but there is other traffic on 
the frequency. 


General chatting via RF through a digipeater is working fine and is raising 
curiosity on the local packet frequency.. Good stuff..
