EchoHam / Re: EchoHam ver. 2.00 (2255) doesn't work under macOS Sierra

Maybe it will help:
Sometimes, during the server searching, there is the inscription "Zero KB" in the EchoHam window (at the upper left)

Sergey, you are the first/only user to report this. I don't have Sierra to run a test so can't really confirm your diagnosis.
I would be very interested to hear from any other Sierra users if they have the same problem.

The application cannot connect with server.
I even changed names of servers, but It didn't help.
Right now, the same application in exactly the same conditions but under macOS 10.9.5 operates very well.

EchoHam / EchoHam ver. 2.00 (2255) doesn't work under macOS Sierra

Hi,

The EchoHam works correctly on my old MacBook Pro under 10.9.x only, but it doesn't work on my new MacBook Pro under macOs Sierra 10.12.3.
Do you plan to fix this problem?

Thank you,

Best regards,
Sergey

EchoHam / Re: EchoHam V2 feature requests

I saw a "Favorites" come up briefly - that would be a great feature if there are a few you regularly connect to. 

In lieu if a "Favorites" a window where you could enter a node name or number specifically.

EchoHam / Finding a contact

« Last post by ve2ngq on July 08, 2016, 09:24:09 am »

I just downloaded EchoHam V2 to my Mac Book Pro with O/S El Capitan v10:11:5

My biggest issue with EchoLink in the past and possibly with EchoHam now is that there are hundreds of listed users, links, repeaters and when you try to reach the majority there is no response. Am i doing something wrong? The only toggle that I see re on line or busy is on my software.

EchoHam / Re: Connection help for complete noob

Sorry I did not reply sooner. It looks like my spam filter ate the notification that there had been a reply. My friend has been has been unable to work on this for several days due to other pressing issues. He probably needed a break anyway as this has become very frustrating for him.

I will pass this info on to him later today and report back as soon as we have an answer.

A static IP address is not necessary but a "public" IP is. Some of the ISP nowadays use private IP's for their customers and that makes it very difficult/impossible for old protocols such as EchoLink.

As a first step I would suggest that you need to find out the "public" IP address on the Super Hub 2, post the address here (blank out the last octet with XXX for security reasons) so we can find out it is really "public".

EchoHam / Connection help for complete noob

I'm not currently an amateur radio operator but I am trying to help someone else. He is in the UK and I am in the US.Perhaps you can give us some ideas. I think he was able to verify his call sign but has ben unable to make a connection yet (even to echo test). Here is what I know so far:

1. He is using a Mac running El Capitan (OS X 10.11.5).
2, His ISP is Virgin Media running a Super Hub 2. It does not appear from what I read online that this ISP supports a static IP address on its residential internet accounts.
3. I sent him directions for setting up port forwarding on the Super Hub 2 but I am not sure he has been successful. The Virgin Media rep that he spoke to about this was less than helpful.
4. Since the ISP does not seem to support fixed IP addresses could I achieve the same result by switching his Mac settings from DHCP to DHCP with manual address? Assuming that I set a valid number would that also work?

BTW thanks for producing this program. I have been considering getting a license for a long time and the cost of good gear has been a sticking point. Running this on my computer looks like a good alternative.
