Varac Profiles - Callsign Tags and Alert Tags
I have created 2 profiles, however when I added Alert Tags and Callsign Tags to one profile, when I opened my other profile the Tags had also changed in the 2nd profile. I must have done something wrong ?
Please can you help ?
Thanks

Scanning of freqs?
There was a question some years ago about scanning ->
"Freq Scanning-Could there be a way to scan bands, not the scheduler but 10 or 15 second intervals between any two bands?"
The question did not get any answers and I would like to ask the same.
The settings could be for example:
scanning off/on, 1850 5, 3600 5, 5360 5, 7070 5 or
scanning off/on, 5354 5, 5357 5, 5360 5

I believe it time to do this. I will add this to the next version. I will also add the option to beacon once every 15 minutes on each of those bands while scanning so people will know you are there and can try to connect you. Downside is that most likely you wont be able to receive beacons from others. THerefore this is suitable only if you care about operating a service (Like email gateway/BBS/AI) for the sake of helping the community, but you wont be part of the party of getting beacons and SNR reports, getting broadcasts or even receiving CQ calls.
VarAC and Emcomm/Disaster comm applications
At the suggestion of N3CZ Gary as this forum v. the VarAC HF Forum be better suited for my subject, I've moved my post here. I ask readers indulgence if some of my content might/has been fragmentally covered elsewhere previously in this sub-forum.
For those for whom this piques interest, I recommend first starting with the few comments to my post in the VarAC HF forum.
What follows is my post to the FaceBook VARA HF group re VarAC, EmComm, and Vmail/Email
Branching here from my earlier query about auto-disconnect function for sending Vmail/Email. My intent is to begin a discussion on:
How many users view VarAC as a tool in the emcomm tool box and in what context: short, medium, and/or long haul connections.
How useful can the "Send File" feature be for Emcomm.

It is a good tool, we already had local drills using NVIS propagation - 2. SendFile/Vmail/Email/BBS seem to be good also for EmComm, we are planning to have a drill on these soon. - 3. AutoSending could be also good for - minimizing the time on CF and - QSY to free slot to send - and return.

Thanks for the help. Turns out it was something called the narrator in the sound settings of VARAC. It was sending a voice announcement over the air with each beacon for visually impaired folks.
