Ouch. basic nightmare.I do not envy you guys having to work your way through that to find the bug. That is alot of hard work. Kudos to you both. If you ever consider porting the code to something outside of GW-BASIC I'd be happy to throw my hat in to help, I work in the .net languages and would be happy to help. What/how is the raw data pulled from the streams?

Great Job Digiblur & Friend.

GREAT JOB DIGI AND THE ANONYMOUS WHO HELPED AND KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB

[QUOTE=digiblur;2368124]A NOTE FROM SCOTT

After MANY MANY hours of work DIGIBLUR and one other very helpful SatelliteGuys Member who at this point wants to remain unknown have gotten our Uplink Software working again! They spent many hours going through the thousand of lines of the code created by the late JohnH to order to find the cause of the issue and fix the problem.

First a very big THANK YOU from me to both people who worked so long and so hard to fix the issue.

Secondly I would like to reward both people because I understand time is money. I am giving both men $25 each in the form of an Amazon.COM Gift Card for their hard work. I wish it could be more but times are tough at the moment.

Also a number of people have asked if they could donate to help get this issue fixed, the answer is YES. I have setup a special donation address which can be found by
CLICKING HERE

. People wishing to donate to them may do so there. I will be taking all donations made through this URL and will split them 50/50 amung both parties and on November 1st I will buy them each a Amazon.COM gift card with the money plus my own personal $25 to each as well. 100% of your money will go to them for their hard work. I will personally eat the costs of any Paypal fees that are charged.

To make sure I am not pocketing any money I will be posting the members username that have donated and the amount the donates so we can keep a running tally in public.
If you want your donatation to these guys as Anonymous type Anonymous in the username box.
AGAIN IF YOU WANT TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS PLEASE PUT ANONYMOUS IN THE MEMEMBER NAME BOX! (IF YOU LEAVE IT BLANK Paypal Inserts your full name!)

Example for my $50...

Donated By | Amount
Scott Greczkowski $50
Anoymous.....$5

Nobody has to donate anything but if you want to join me in saying thats for their time and effort in fixing the software please

. Deadliine to donate is by NOON ET on Sunday October 31st. (And then I am ordering the Gift Cards)

Thank you again Digiblur and Mystery Person for your hard work!

I WOULD DONATE IF IT WAS AFTER THE 31ST I ONLY GET PAID ONCE A MONTH AND DONT GET PAID TILL THE 3RD SINCE IM ON DISABILITY

Don't worry about it, I am sure a thank you is good enough.

I got to be honest, the only reason I did it was because I know they worked many hours at it and I wasn't in a place where I could give them more as a thank you from SatelliteGuys (and I feel bad about that honestly). And since a few folks asked over the past 4 weeks if they could give them money to fix the uplink software, I decided to take a collection for those who wanted to give to their work. I never expected the outpouring of support they have received so far!
