KISS Mode / Handling Delays

[jcrix]

I could be going about this wrong. But I've built a BBS using direwolf as the sound modem. Everything works well for the most part. But I have no way to tell went direwolf actually transmitted my packet. Which clearly causes timing issues. Is there a better way to go about this? It would be nice if there was a way to track when a packet actually transmits so I could probably build this event driven wise. Like a mode we could put it in so that when a packet to be transmitted is submitted direwolf would responds OK when it actually transmits. Or error if something bad happens.

This is probably more of a feature request than an issue, but I'll add a "me too" to this. This would be a useful thing to have with the way I use direwolf for an APRS tracker.

Look in the Dire Wolf User Guide, section 9.4.6, KISS "set hardware" command.

There is a command to obtain the current number of frames sitting in the transmit queue. Does this help?

I tested the command. Yes this should work for what I need. Thanks!
