Russell, .pskmail/pskmailrc.pl is the file that you can edit . This file can contain you callsign, lat/lontitude and SMTP server if you do not want to enter in each time you boot the software. Itis also where you can set some scan parameters. look for the line with SCANNER in it and change 'F' to an 'S' if you want to scan modes and not frequencies. There is also another file freqs.txt that you can edit and add different modes if you want to.

I tried but no path between us Alan. Last night K7EK had a good 30M path to me from Washington, so perhaps later tonight we will be able to test your server On Sun, Oct 25, 2009 at 3:31 PM, ke4nu_7 wrote: > > > Thanks for the info, I doubt if anyone would be able to hear me here in > western montana on 10 mhz but its something to try..I'll give it a shot and > see...73, Alan > > > --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com , > "obrienaj" wrote: > > > > > > Great news Alan. > > > > Since PSKMAIL also is an APRS conduit , and uses the Internet to pass > some items to APRS servers, it would be useful for you to see if you can > connect to the internet.

Great news Alan. Since PSKMAIL also is an APRS conduit , and uses the Internet to pass some items to APRS servers, it would be useful for you to see if you can connect to the internet. So, first thing would be to try and configure you PC to detect wither your ethernet port or your wireless port.

Start FLdigi Then to actually start the server, click on CONSOLE and then type 'pskmail_sever' (include the apostrophes ) then hit enter Answer the questions about your callsign, lontitude/latitude and your STMP address that you use (if you use outlook express look in accounts/properties /servers for the SMTP address After you enter those brief questions, the server will start in PSK250 mode. If you want to change the mode, change it via fldigi. If you want to actually change modes on a schedule there are a couple of others steps. We'll do that later.

[digitalradio] Re: Downloaded Puppy Pskmail Server Now what?
Great news Alan. Since PSKMAIL also is an APRS conduit , and uses the Internet to pass some items to APRS servers, it would be useful for you to see if you can connect to the internet.So, first thing would be to try and configure you PC to detect wither your ethernet port or your wireless port. I am not at that screen at the moment and cannot remember the steps, but try clicking on the CONNECT ICON on your puppy desktop and go from there. Let me know if you need more help. Start FLdigi Then to actually start the server, click on CONSOLE and then type 'pskmail_sever' (include the apostrophes ) then hit enter Answer the questions about your callsign, lontitude/latitude and your STMP address that you use (if you use outlook express look in accounts/properties/servers for the SMTP address After you enter those brief questions, the server will start in PSK250 mode. If you want to change the mode, change it via fldigi. If you want to actually change modes on a schedule there are a couple of others steps. We'll do that later. I am going out for an hour , be back about 2000 UTC. We can test more then, if you need a test. Andy K3UK --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, "ke4nu_7" wrote: > > I downloaded and burned it to cd.
