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
-meaning that all those freqs are listened 5 seconds for incoming calls.
Benefits:
QRM avoidance
Best band selection for propagation
Better band usage etc.

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.
