This is NOT good!! If we can't reply and they forget to "FLUSH" as you call it, we can't stop of their conversation on our system. Maybe the communication between them and us should not be allowed until the issues are resolved so we can get back to them easily. This was a big problem his morning, as our commuters were trying to communicate and JA7NJN was holding a conversation in Japanese. The locals couldn't use our system.
Don't get me wrong. I'm all for international communication, and I personally enjoy it, when it works. I really don't see too many users quickly programming their radios to reply to a call from Japan. I for one cannot program mine manually without the software and while driving or out in the yard on a handheld I don't see it happening at all. It wouldn't have been a problem if he had remembered to "flush" and hopefully it doesn't keep occurring.

You would have to put their repeater in the UR. Perhaps UR=/JP7YELA or /JP7YEMA. I don't know about the dongle users - I suspect until the JA trust server better coordinates with the US trust server, there will be a few hitches. I don't rely on one touch reply because when folks change repeaters or bands it takes some time for the far end gateways to catch up. For me it is much better to call the repeater instead of the individual. As far as forgetting the change the UR back to CQCQCQ, kinda like remembering to flush..... 73, Steve franmiele wrote: > How would Dongle users reply? > > Also, I don't see anyone doing this while they are driving. > > Today wwe had an instance where JA7NJN was calling on AAA1HD and none > of us could get back to him. <http://groups. <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dstar_digital/> yahoo.com/group/dstar_digital/> [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
