[hpsdr] Ghpsdr3 and the Android client

[Sid Boyce]

Nice try but not a cat in hell's chance even if he were master as he 
doesn't have a login ID, so he can't TX.
Typical local report of a slave trying to control my HiQSDR:-
[2012-09-05 23:19:48] Slave client attempted master command mic
[2012-09-05 23:19:48] Slave client attempted master command mic

[2012-09-05 23:19:52] RX0: client disconnection from 93.63.13.145:39916
73 ... Sid.
