Q2530 I have connected to a PMBO and messages are flowing, but VERY SLOWLY. Suggestions?

A2530 If you are “almost done” with the transfers, hang in there and wait for the finish.

If you will have a significant estimated time left to finish the transfer, do a Hard Disconnect (hit the Button twice). Pick another PMBO, another frequency for the same PMBO, modify your equipment for a better signal, or wait until propagation conditions improve.

There are many PMBO’s and frequency bands available; something usually works
better…now.

When you make the next connection, AirMail tells the PMBO how much of the message(s)
have already been transferred, and the process will continue from where it left off on the previous connection.
