I checked the Squish source code (s_misc.c) and it's definitely writes the FSC-48 auxNet field to packet headers: ph->aux_net=us->net; But curiously, has the src-point indicator magic-net-value hack commented out: /*if (us->point)*//* Kludge using the pkt.aux_net field */ /* ph->orig_net=-1;*//* for compatibility with other<tm> progs */
So Squish appears to generate packets that are not exactly FSC-39 or FSC-48 compliant. This conclusion was made from the source code released on GitHub (https://github.com/sdudley/maximus/blob/master/squish/s_misc.c) so it's always possible that earlier released versions of Squish did something different. -- digital man (rob)
