The 20130831 beta release (repeater)

Hi Folks

This release is of particular interest to users of the DV-RPTR V2 hardware/firmware, although there are changes all around:

1. Make DV-RPTR V2 handling better. For some reason the firmware sends nonsense to the repeater every so often, just random garbage. This was causing the repeater software to get confused and stop operating, this has been fixed.

2. Catch exceptions and other C++ changes in the D-Star Repeater. These aren't visible changes but may help from time to time when things go a little amiss in the software.

3. Add TX Delay to the DV-RPTR V2 modem in the D-Star Repeater. IMHO this was a silly omission from the DV-RPTR V2 firmware, however it has now been rectified. There is a setting within the D-Star Repeater Config program for it.

And that's it.

Sorry for being quiet, but I'm now in full-time employment and my time is more limited than it was, even if my bank account is much healthier (IC-7100.....???). Also this last week I was on the end of a rather poor Internet connection which didn't help.
