(possibly) me. And, again AFAIK, I don't change anything.<br>
<br>
Have a look at DXProtVars.pm<br>
<br>
Which means that I not using these values for PC92 etc. I don't know <br>
why. Neither can I remember why I have "special" hop counts for the <br>
sentences in %hopcount - other than to test the mechanism. Which given <br>
that I created/touched this file as recently as June 2007 is clearly <br>
unforgivable.<br>
<br>
I have no intention of changing this file. So these are the defaults. <br>
Given that I had to spend about 10 minutes looking for this information, <br>
I'm guessing that no-one else has either. So for DXSpider nodes the <br>
hopcounts for those sentences are correct. For PC92/93 they are all <br>
hardcoded at H99.<br>
<br>
You can probably write any code you might need using the defaults in <br>
DXProtVars.pm BUT this will only work for DXSpider nodes. (Nearly) Every <br>
other software will likely be using H99. You can probably assume that <br>
anything above (say) 70 started at H99.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps<br>
