Where does mmdvm store incoming pocsag messages?

i would like to see if these could be stored in a file or log that i could grep to find a certain page. i know i could listen to the freq with an sdr and decode the RF but if i could just see in real time on the pi would be great.

As far as I can see from the code, POCSAG msgs are received from a socket and queued in RAM until the modem is idle for transmitting them out. So msgs are normally not saved in a file or log.

However, there is a commented #define in line 23 of PocsagControl.cpp which controls DUMP_POCSAG. When defined, it makes the code dumping any data into a POCSAG_date_time.ambe file, but I haven't tested it yet, so not sure about which format will be used in there.

It is also logged in DAPNETGateway from what I remember.
