Relay Error

I found another bug. I clicked on the “relay” button on the bottom right of the screen. The relay window came up, then I clicked on the call sign, the clicked “delete”. The program came up with an exception “index out of range”. There are 2 options, one to continue, the other to quit immediately. Both of the options work. The reason I’m having to delete it is because I have a contact that I have retrieved his swaying “async” message 5 times and I get the vmail, but his end never seems to realize I have retrieved it. I have no info on that issue. This notice is only about deleting the relay.

Thanks, K8DDD

I tried to answer your CQ on 10M today several times. Your SNR was in the + levels so very strong. But you did not hear me to respond, did you see me try to connect. So as always, please provide more info on your setup. A screenshot of your VARA HF modem screen will be very telling as there is something wrong with your setup.

Found a bug

I hate to bring up another bug I found, but here it is. I changed from emmcom to advanced. Changed over the the 40m calling freq and tested a few connections. Changed freq back to AmRRON calling freq and also back to emcomm. I then restarted my beacon there. Came back after a couple of hours and noticed that it was beaconing ever 15 min. I started this process using 180 minutes as a beacon time. Somewhere it defaulted back to 15 minutes.

Thanks,

Beacon time is changed permanently when moving between modes. In Emcomm mode - did you set it to 5 minutes ? if you did, when going out of emcomm mode it will default to the minimum allwed as 5 is not allowed if not in Emcomm

Exit leaves vara background process running

Hello,

When starting then exiting VarAC and Vara (in any order) it leaves a vara background process running (with no UI), which must be killed with Task Manager (Windows 10). If not killed, the next run dialogs "Error: another copy of VARA is running from this folder." So I have to run Task Manager and kill the running background process each time before running VarAC and/or VARA.

What I've tried: in Settings, uncheck "Automatically start VARA" then start VARA manually, then VarAC, then exit VarAC then VARA, in any order, and it leaves the background process running. Also, clicking "Disconnect modem" before exiting still leaves the background process running. Also tried taking ownership of the executables, and running as administrator, makes not difference.

Starting and then exiting VARA alone does not create the background process. Using VARA in Winlink does not create the background process. Otherwise I'd say it's a…
