I have a source of periodic UDP packets targeted to IP
broadcast and port 3030. The data rate is 16 bits per
sample, PCM, 24kHz sampling frequency, mono.

When I run netcat -n -u -l -p 3030 to dump the stream,
netcat dumps only first about 100 bytes (likely a
content of the first packet) and nothing more.

    I have a very similar problem, related to -x. When I send
    multiple UDP packets to a port every packet is printed to
    the screen (pipe, etc). But when I use the -x option, only
    the first packet is reported, with the rest seemingly
    falling into the ether.

    Same behavior here when receiving from a multicast
    transfer. only the first datagram goes through (port
    12345).

    netcat -l -u -p 12345
