I own 2 different stations in 2 different QTHs and I ussually use 2 different callsigns to distinguish them both. One is EA3OG and the other is EA3OG/P and I have configured the VARA modem of the remote station as EA3OG/P. VARA accepts very well this change and functions well with the same password than EA3OG for spped up connections. I have used this method with VARA CHAT FM connections.
But VarAC seems that do not accept this sufixe "/P" because when I have changed my callsign on the Varac.ini file and then the program starts quite well with EA3OG/P as the callsign, but then I do not get and PTT activity in VarAC when I try to transmit..
I am very interested in this kind of operation because I would like to check the speed on files exchanges between my two stations, the one local and the other in remote. Could you, Irad, do some thing for me to get it working?
Thankyou Irad for all these improvoements.
Released in V4.1.6
Thankyou, Irad

Next version will support this. introducing "full callsigns" exchange feature.
This is from the VARA TNC commands manual. The sign "/" is not allowed.
MYCALL Call1 Call2 Call3 Call4 Call5 Set current call sign (maximum 5 call signs). Legitimate call signs include from 3 to 7 ASCII characters (A-Z, 0-9) followed by an optional “-“ and an SSID of -1 to -15, -T, and -R.
Unfortunatly VARA does not support those kind of callsigns.
