Recoveries passed in silence. When the banner poll saw the radio come back, the offline or zombie banner simply vanished; clearing the flag by hand replaced the banner's markup with "Offline flag cleared … Refresh to confirm", so a refresh was the only confirmation. Worse, that replacement was permanent: if the radio dropped again on the same page, the banner came back showing the stale success message (and its Since time was gone). The zombie banner had the same bug.
The banner poll now notices when the bot starts running again, the radio answers again, reconnects, or comes back online. It shows one notice for the most basic of these, e.g. "Radio back online at 2:23 PM · offline for 42 min, since 1:41 PM". The notice dismisses itself after 20 seconds or on close. The server keeps no start time for a dropped radio link, so for that case the page notes when it first saw the link down. The clear and restart buttons no longer touch their banner: they wait with a spinner, poll again sooner, and reset once the flag clears, so the banner is intact if the radio drops again.
Real-time records both kinds of event on the tape as small dividers in time order:
- A recovery gets the same line with a green dot.
- A dropped socket gets a line when it reconnects. The reconnect replays the newest 50 rows; if the oldest of them reaches back past the drop, the line says "Link lost 2:28–2:31 PM · nothing missed" (and drops under 15 seconds aren't mentioned). Otherwise the line says which span isn't shown, with an amber dot, and the 10-minute spark draws that span as unknown instead of quiet.
Clear tape removes the dividers, and at most 20 are kept.
