TCP Inbound Connection

Post by AE0S »

In version 1 I had a TCP inbound connection (used for GridTracker submitting QSOs to Log4OM).
How do I set that up with version 2? I only see UDP inbound settings.

Hi Claus,

I've updated your login to your current call sign.

AFAIK, TCP interface is yet to be added to V2, however I believe it is planned. Daniele can advise more on that.

It works for me. The workflow is wsjtx sending info on the gridtracker port (2237?), gridtracker broadcasting the information further (2238?), in gridtracker loging to log4om on the log4om port (2236?). In log4om I listen to 2 ports, the one broadcasted from gridtracker (2238) with the type related to wsjt messages and the one receiving information from the port where gridtracker sends the adif log (2236), type of port adif.
I am not in front of my pc so the ports might be different but the idea is here.
In wsjtx I did not select the deprecated port at the bottom.

Should work ok, I can feed Gridtracker with MSHV, WSJTX or JTDX displays hrd #s on map and if log4om logging is enable retransmissions the QSO in case to a remote logger PC.

Good Luck if can be of help please email g0ggg@yahoo.co.uk

HB9GVJ, thanks to you in investigated the UDP settings. I ended up routing through Log4OM so that I don't have to run GridTracker in order to log WSJT-X QSOs.

WSJT-X:

Code: Select all

UDP Server: 127.0.0.1  2237 (all three checkboxes checked)
Secondary UDP Server: 127.0.0.1  2333 (Enabled logged contact ADFI broadcast checked)
GridTracker:

Code: Select all

Receive UDP Messages: 2238
Forward UDP Messages: disabled
Logging/ Log4OM: not used
Log4OM V2:

Code: Select all

[UDP_INBOUND] [ADIF_MESSAGE] [2333]
[UDP_PROXY] [JT_MESSAGE] [From Any:2237] [To 127.0.0.1:2238]
If someone is wondering what's going on there. WSJT-X sends multiple message types via UDP: The JT_MESSAGES which contain the info of the current QSO and the ADIF_MESSAGE which contains the QSO log information. Log4OM receives both messages and will forward both messages via the UDP_PROXY, but apparently it can only processes one message type per port.

I'm not sure if Secondary UDP Server of WSJT-X sends JT_MESSAGEs. It didn't seem to work for me. So I used the primary port for JT_MESSAGEs and the UDP Server for the ADIF_MESSAGEs.

Remember, that the UDP Server from WSJT-X sends both types of messages and Log4OM forwards both types. This allows GridTracker to receive both type of messages on port 2238.

I really wish one could add multiple message type to the same port for processing in Log4OM. The Secondary UDP Server of WSJT-X really shouldn't be needed.
e.g.: [UDP_PROXY] [JT_MESSAGE] [From Any:2237] [To 127.0.0.1:2238] and [UDP_PROXY] [ADIF_MESSAGE] [From Any:2237] [To 127.0.0.1:2238]

multiple message types on a single port is a bit too much :)
we will have issues parsing messages and recognizing them...

It does work like this but I cannot get the automated update in log4om meaning the focus and details on the call sign I am currently working on in WSJTX.

I had to switch between 2237 and 2238 ports to make it work as it seems gridtrackerdoes not like to listen to 2238 :D
