Very Nice FS-1b/2 interface

N6RFM commented 4 years ago

Hi Richard,

Given that the GS sketches for FS-1b and 2 are mostly deprecated, very nice to see the GSCP approach being worked on!

A few questions -

Will there be a version of the GSCP which allows non-team members (e.g., amateur radio operators) to transmit and receive data for the public commands in Fossa-Comms?
Using the 0.21 pre-compiled binary and an Arduino nano based sx126x transceiver, I can connect and hand skake from the GSCP. However, seem unable to send even a Ping. Do all commands require a password at this time? If so, will a version be made available in which those public commands are accessible? (Perhaps with private commands greyed out?)
How is the executable being compiled? I did try QT-Creator -open source for 64 bit linux but was not successful? Perhaps only 32 bit at this time under Windows?

Great Work! Thanks so much.

@N6RFM Hey N6RFM!

Thanks for the feedback and support!

Yes the GSCP will support both public and internal use, so you will be able to use it with your own setup. At the moment the software is in an alpha state, therefore i wouldn't count on it working just yet.

I will specifically test the use case of operating as a public (no-password) user and make sure that it is debugged for you!

The latest build is a hugely different version from the current one in the source code, you will definitely have better results if you compiled the source but it should compile straight away in QT-Creator. Can you tell me what errors occured while building please? Usually its only small compatability errors 👍

Thanks! Richard

Hi Richard,

Thanks response. Using latest commit. Have jumped over to QT Creator 64 bit which seems to work fine. For reasons I'll look into, the Linux environment remains problematic.

Appear able to Handshake, and see what may be some sort of ACK? When monitoring for Pings using SDR, no evidence of transmission when using the GSCP. Not sure if enabled as yet, or maybe a password issue. Will standby for next update. All Best! Bob

Also, when compiling under Linux Qt Creator show the following fatal error on line 50. Seems not an issue under Windows.
