Hi,

sorry! I just realised that you already have the blocked_sw / blocked_hw one's
queued.

This just changes the name of blocked_sw and blocked_hw to "soft" and
"hard".

I don't know what you wanna do. I'm fine with blocked_hw and
blocked_sw as it's referenced as such (hw/sw) in the code, but Marcel
wanted to get away from the "hard blocked by hardware" notation, as it
suggests that the transmitter could only be blocked by hardware...

cheers,
Flo
