It would be handy to know the "Up Time" (duration a station is on line) especially when using the pathfinder tool. For example, when using the pathfinder tool if it listed the approximate duration that each station has been online. So when parking a Vmail, the stations that are online would be listed with an indicator that separates those stations that are just periodically online versus those that are online most of the time. Or better yet, a number indicating the % of uptime each station is online.

Periodically when I park a Vmail it gets stuck on a station that just periodically is online.

Thank you! Keep up the awesome work Irad! 73, Bret C / AC0AE - Kansas

Perhaps have seperate Canned Beacon messages.

That is general beacons, such as

Message "Emergency chnging to EMCOMM Mode"

Message "Changing to 160m"

Through "Changing to 10m"

Message "This station closing down - unless called, in 5 minutes"

On the Canned Messages input window the Name of the message field on mine I see

The label next to the 'NAME' is either concatenated or not complete

Nam [ ... ]

should be Name [ ... ]

Kind regards

When using Canned Messages can we transfer the Name of the message as the default subject.

Thanks for consideration

Can we have a second and even third tab of canned messages.

1. Allowing for those with visual imparement make the Message window deeper, thus giving more view of the content.

2. decrease th number visible on tab 1 ( perhaps to 8).

3. Tab 2 to be less used but nonetheless important messages, to the operator at least.

4. The Shortcut key could be Alt/F1.... for the tab 2 items

   
   

Thanks for considering.

I believe it could be very good, if Beacons also “signals”, if the operator is away or present.

There is no space between to------ seconds

The up to6 seconds here shoul be up to 6 seconds

Like I said minor.

I tried altering C:\VarAC\VarAC_UI_languages.ini line 263 but seems not to accept my change.

I have a bank of LFP batteries at home that have Bluetooth-enabled BMSes. I've written a utility for Linux that connects to them via BLE and collects their telemetry (voltage, current, SOC, etc). My utility connects to the APRS network (W2JKT-15) and sends telemetry beacons, but I would like to also be able to send telemetry beacons in VarAC. Maybe this isn't within the scope of the VarAC mission, but I just thought I'd ask if there could be a way to get that data? I could easily just TCP connect to the VARA modem and send a properly-formatted beacon, or perhaps it could be done via socket in the VarAC app? Any thoughts?

I've been away from VarAC for a while (regrettably), and after installing 13.2.7 I find that after typing text into the "new message" window and hitting "enter" it is not transferred to the queue and thus does not get sent.

Entering a VMAIL locally and then sending it works as it should, as does sending a path request.

I'm running the latest Win 11.

I can enable debug mode if necessary.
