Re: [Hamlib-developer] Proposed patch for tranceive hanging

[Bob P. A. <pa...@me...>]

In programming the ICOM IC-R8500 (using Tcl/Tk, not hamlib),
most (but not all) bus collisions I've seen produce 3 hex FC bytes.

The FC byte code is not useful for any other purpose in
the IC-R8500 command set.  Therefore, my tk8500 software interprets
any FC character as indicia of a collision and discards
the remaining bytes in the message.
