POCSAG, Log states ignoring time messages

WSpivak

Is there a reason you're not transmitting the time messages (that would automatically update pagers with the "correct" time?

Thank you.

If "Transmit time messages" (at the DAPNET connector settings) is unchecked then the openSPOT4 won't transmit time messages from the DAPNET server.

Thank you! BUT

I can't find this screen:

All I have in Quick Setup (notice Advanced Setup is checked) is:

HA2NON

Connectors page, select the DAPNET connector from the dropdown.

So I set the DAPNET like this:

My pager is set like this:

I'm seeing this on Openspot:

And this on my pager (every 2 mins):

Where did I go wrong???

BTW, if I read the Timestamp for RIC 200 says 1642, RIC 224 says 1842 and RIC 216 was 1842.

UTC would be 1742, ET is 1242 (and if it doesn't do daylight saving, 1142). So something else doesn't make sense... (and I know you have nothing to do with the actual time stamp unless there is an error in decode).

The openSPOT does not change the message sent by DAPNET.

I may not have been clear; every 2 mins I get a page that doesn’t update the pager.

I was under the impression that was what the timestamp was supposed to be to do.
