But linux does write callsigns heard to its nodelist (or so it seems) but
they get added with an asterisk as mnemonic. My nodelist is full of them and
they do seem to be unconnectable as well. I have 40 such nodes now in my
nodelist total nodes are 750, in % not such a big deal but an enoying problem
to say the least.
I and a few others have reported this problem before, or a very simalar
problem.
When i and a few others here in NL looked at this more closely it was
discovered that most all stn's transmittimg this type of broadcast were using
either Jnos or Tnos.
We even found that Linux stn's using the linux kernel netrom and ax25 were
seemingly digipeting those packets from Xnos stn's as well.
