Two answers to "can people debug this when it does not work".
They could not. A custom UDP row logged "sent 18 bytes to 127.0.0.1:12000"
and nothing about the message — which is a template the operator wrote, so
the byte count says nothing about whether the substitution came out as they
meant. The payload is now in the line, with the trigger that fired it, for
custom rows only: an ADIF record or a binary WSJT frame on every QSO would
bury the log rather than fill it.
Worse was the silent case. A template that is a single placeholder the trigger
does not carry — {freq} on a band change — renders empty, sends nothing, and
looked exactly like a row that had never fired. It now says so, throttled per
row, and points at the field list.
And a password in a URL is redacted before it reaches the file. Storing
http://admin:secret@switch/ as typed was a deliberate choice for LAN gear;
writing it into a log that gets sent to whoever is helping is a different
choice, and was never made.
The Settings section is "Connections" rather than "UDP integrations", since it
has not been UDP-only since the URL transport landed. The log prefix stays
"udp:" on purpose — renaming it would orphan every log an operator has already
sent and every note anyone has written against it.
