Hello Group,

Just to bring an « UP » on Matthieu’s email ;-)

- Missing basic queries sur as ?APRSD , ?APRSP etc…
- a setting for a "viscosity factor" for HF (300bd) ops

> Other stations, digi or igate, are sometimes slow to react facing Xastir which retry a message quickly after the first sent. I noticed this "aggressive" behavior especially with slow links (300bds HF).

> Data view and messages view are really usefull to monitor trafic but I think date and time informations are missing.
> How about add this in a short field for each line on these monitor windows ?

> Sorry if theses ideas are not new but I really think they reflect what is missing for me in this wonderful APRS software.
