Steven,

thanks for your ideas.

This works already (without the quality lowering). But the problem is
that two flyers cannot connect to each other on every frq they like if
they are in range.

Yes. The problem is the transport of the intercommunication. I made some
tests with a parallel XML-RPC session which transports the data but this
is complex to handle because you have to sync the VoIP and the XML-RPC
sessions. My code was not very stable and some strange things happend
sometimes. 

My intention is to write something which might be complex but simple to
install and use.

Regards, Holger
