There are a couple of scripts that you might be interested in for finding available RMS Gateways in directory n7nix/bin rmslist.sh Usage: ./rmslist.sh <integer_distance_in_miles> <maidenhead_grid_square> gatewaylist.sh Usage: gatewaylist.sh [-c][-l][-m <max_distance_in_miles>[-g <grid_square>][-s][-h] -c | --count count number of RMS Stations -l | --list build list of RMS Stations -m | --max arg max distance in miles -g | --gridsquare arg grid square location -s | --show show all Stations -d | --debug set debug flag -h | --help display this message wlgw-check.sh get repository auto-rmsgw-find https://github.com/n7nix/auto-rmsgw-find This script uses rigctl for a Kenwood TM-v71a to iterate through an RMS Gateway list made by rmslist.sh and tries to connect with each gateway using paclink-unix.

So when eveyrthing else checks out maybe it's the gateway's problem. Looks like the system I was talking to yesterday is off line today.
I shopped around for another system and found one on Mercer Is. that answers me. I think I spent a bunch of time on device settings in Draws Manager when all I had to do is find another gateway system. I used the 40 mV from the FT-7800 documentation to compute and set Transmit Analog to -6db, digital to -25db. -2db receive input pin 5 seems to work. Thanks for all your help Basil. I'll send you an email via Winlink.. Then I'm calling it a night. Tomorrow I'll see if I can get my IC-7000 to cooperate.. :) Kevin / N7KJK

OK I'm guessing some terminology here.
I've tried both Din6 ports by enter -a udr0 or -a udr1. I move the cable to the appropriate connection and it does make the radio transmit. I'm listening to the frequency on an HT, and I see the power meter on the radio along with the transmit indicator. ax25port=udr0, which seems to be the left one on the PI as it transmits and receives (sometimes) when I don't override it at the command line. Here's a output without any gateway response. $ wl2kax25 -c W7AUX-10 -V

Not sure what you mean by "I've tested both serial ports". Which mDin6 connector are you using left or right? Updating paclink-unix will not affect the DRAWS config or radio config at all. Verify that the connector used, the port in ax25port= in /usr/local/etc/wl2k.conf and portname in /etc/ax25/axports match. ie. left port is udr0, right is udr1 run the chk_mail.sh script like this: cd cd n7nix/debug ./chk_mail.sh /Basil n7nix Kevin K. - N7KJK <kkutzera@gmail.com> writes:

the w2ktelnet command completed without errors and sent my gmail account three emails successfully via the PI's Internet connection. Attempts to use the radio results in my transmission, and what I believe is the gateway's response (hearing it on the radio). Unfortunately now the PI isn't receiving the responses as it did with the .7 version. I've tested both serial ports and tried both the setalsa-default, and the setalsa-ft817 setup files. Not sure what changed on the receiving end of this. Kevin

I changed my password in WinLink a couple times and tested with WinLink on my Windows PC. I set the password with all lower case characters because of the nature of the reported issue. Tested actual invalid entry in WinLink to make sure my new password was actually updated throughout the network.
Tonight I'll boot up the PI and check on the version number, then attempt the git pull as you indicated. Thanks Kevin

that fixed a case bug in the Winlink password. The file that changed was wl2k.c.

Pac-Link account password does not match

Kevin K. - N7KJK
Hello,
I'm running a fresh setup of Beta 13.. All the configuration scripts seem to have worked. I am using a dual band Yaesu FT-7800. I've successfully connected with wl2kax25 command to a gateway nearby. Handshake and challenge messages all work. I think I actually had one successful connection with a check for inbound email. Now all attempts end with the "secure login failed - account password does not match" message. I've made several attempts to change my winlink password update the config file, and even manually specify the parameter in the command line. No luck. I've tested the password with send and receive using WinLink on my Windows 10 PC (telnet Winlink) . Works just fine after updating the password in configuration. I am aware that we have to be careful with updates to Beta 13. I was wondering if there's a safe and/or advisable way to just update Pac-Link program. I know there were errors regarding the secure connection passwords is some version of Pac-Link. I'm relatively new to the PI operating system. Please be very clear and complete with any instructions. You won't insult my intelligence. :) Thanks Kevin N7KJK
