Text message types

  • Messages to all (*). Only enter the message in the text line and send. These messages are displayed for all nodes.
  • Direct messages (DM). Message to a single callsign. In addition to the message, the desired destination callsign is entered in the DM input field.
  • Group notifications (GRC). Messages to a group of nodes. In addition to the message, the desired target group is entered in the DM input field. The messages are only displayed to nodes that do not have a group in the group filter or to nodes that have entered a suitable group in the group filter. Of course, (*) messages or (DM) messages are displayed regardless of the selected groups. The advantage of group messages is also that groups which are given via the server are only distributed to other gateways which have at least one node of a gateway access. posted were made. The display on the gateway itself is of course also restricted according to the direct settings on the gateway node. If on a gateway none Group posted and if no node within a gateway mesh network has not booked a group, the server will only distribute the country group derived from the gateway callsign in the event of a group message. Example: DX0XXX becomes group 262, OE0XXX group 232 and HB0XXX group 228.
    • Group 9 has the special feature that it is only distributed in the HF cloud and is not forwarded to other gateways via the MeshCom server. However, it is necessary to "book" the group if you want to receive local messages.
