Could you contribute to the HamTV Merger?

[G8GKQ]

Hi Mike

The status page for the HamTV Merger Test Streams is at https://live.ariss.org/hamtv/merger/?test.

Please confirm that you have received a CALL/passkey combination from Phil for the Test Merger?

You should not need to reboot Portsdown to connect/disconnect from the merger, but I have just checked the current Portsdown code and it does leave the merger connected with the old parameters if you enter new parameters (such as server, Call or passkey) withough disconnecting first. This is not ideal, so I have just published a software update (202511050) which forces a disconnection if any of the paranmeters are changed.

I'll work on adding some documention about the Test Merger to the Wiki https://wiki.batc.org.uk/HAMTV_from_the ... the_Merger.
