While the debug log is great, it would be helpful to see all incoming data. I am broadcastingany msg types on udp, but virtually none show on the dashboard. It would be helpful to see what is actually coming in.

Thanks for trying the app and for taking the time to write feedback.

I did experiment with dumping all traffic when I was first developing but the volume of traffic on a modern boat makes the log unusable. The compromise I settled with is (approximately) every 5 minutes the app prints the total number of messages received of each time. If you leave the app running for 5 minutes this should let you see which messages have been successfully processed and which have been dropped.

Does this work for you?

Closing this out based on the previous response that the incoming message counts are logged every 5 minutes
