Hi Graham,
ROS software is transmitting a large quantity of messages
many fake, some will say illegal, every time your software
if turned on, and received a message from a radio amatuer with
his own call or a "borrowed" callsign.
This was discovered due to my questioning where US calls came
from and what they represented on this logger.
http://www.hampspots.net/
in Australia.
The owner has made changes and is in conflict now with the
ROS author. ROS author wants to see ROS section closed down
on Netspots.net zodat we do not can see this happening any longer.
(more to it )
Both on this yahoo board and the ROS modem board you can find
details of this since last Friday when this was discovered not
by me though.
