MSHV's PTT test does nothing against the TCI sharing server.
The initialisation block never carried TX_ENABLE. The document files it under
unidirectional control rather than initialisation, so it was missed when the
block was written from §4.1 — but its own note says it is "sent to the client
when connected", and that is the point: a client that models transmit
permission starts out assuming it may NOT transmit. Without it MSHV never even
tries, so nothing arrives to relay and there is nothing to see at either end.
Sent as true always. OpsLog is not what decides — the radio behind whichever
backend is connected does, and its refusal already travels back through SetPTT
into the log.
TX_FREQUENCY goes with it, at connect and whenever the transmit frequency
moves. It is the command a client showing "TX 14.200" reads; channel B alone
left that stale.
And every command a client sends is now logged. This is the only evidence there
will ever be about a program on someone else's machine: "the PTT test does
nothing" cannot be answered without knowing whether MSHV sent trx at all, and
in what form. Cheap — TCI is event-driven, a client speaks when the operator
does something — and capped at 200 lines per connection so one that does poll
cannot quietly fill the log.
If this was not the cause, the next report answers it in one line rather than
another round of guessing.
