Hello,
If I enable 'send beacon over MQTT,' it is disabled again the next time I call it.
No beacon is transmitted.
Received callsigns are transmitted.

Hello,
Thank you for the reply.
Heltec V2 / ESP32 DIY
Mosquitto on Raspberry Pi
Port: 1883
Topic: aprs-igate
I tried it with and without a user/password. I enabled 'Send (also) iGate Beacon' and saved it.
I reloaded the website, but it was disabled.
All other functions work perfectly.
It just doesn't stay enabled.
Thank you! vy73 Peter

just found the problem... its updated already in GitHub repository (not on webflasher, until a few more updates are ready)

if you want to test with GitHub repository:
go to /data_embed/script.js
line 219 and change ".value" for ".checked"

Hello,
Thank you very much for your efforts.
Activating it works!
If I understand correctly, your own beacon should be sent to MQTT.
This doesn't happen. The received callsign is forwarded.
Is it possible that this isn't yet present in the program?
Unfortunately, my knowledge isn't sufficient to determine this.
