KAM.8
On the HF port on the KAM, I have SLottime at 5 and PERSist at
255 with DWait set at 0 and TXDelay at 40. If you add a 27K
resistor across R47 on the bottom of the board if you like, it
will speed up the carrier detect. Now make sure that the carrier
detect led goes off between monitored packets. Do this by turning
the audio down. The manual suggests not to have more than
200 mVolt going into the KAM. This will let the KAM copy better,
including ACKs. That means less retrys.
And a final suggestion. If you use the KAM as HF RLI type BBS,
you might consider setting CHeck to 6 (six) and the timeout timer
in the BBS program to 600 or higher. This way the KAM will time
out the BBS if no packets moved, instead of having the BBS time
out while the KAM is still trying to move the packets from its
very large buffer. On VHF you might try CHeck 24. This would work
for other units as well.
I use the KAM on 14.107 and it seems to work very well this way.
Let me know if this works for you like it does for me. Oh yes, I
use version 2.85 in both units.
