Hello, today I was trying to see the full scale of the Elevation. For mistake instead to turn the FULL SCALE ADJ pot I have Turned the OUT VOLTAGE ADJ one. Now I am not sure if I have reset it to the right position. Please anybody can tell me how to see if it is positioned in the right position? Also if it is possible for the Elevation one. I would like also know if it is normal that when the rotator it is at 0 degrees And have to point up when I press the Up switch I notice that the needle Does not move straight but after a couple of seconds. Is it normal? 73 de Enzo IK8OZV EasyLog 5 BetaTester EasyLog PDA BetaTester WinBollet BetaTester D.C.I.

by Kevin Zari 02 Dec '18

02 Dec '18

Anyone have instructions for compiling FoxTelem from gitHub using eclipse. I know it has some dependencies (like predict4java) but I am unable to figure it out. Thanks, -Kevin (KK4YEL) ----- The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.

Rudi, Turn the squelch on. The TH-D72A will not decode APRS if the squelch is off. Todd AL0I

Hello, I’m configuring my radio for aprs and ISS aprs , I followed settings I gound in Internet. I’m in Europe. In APRS my beacon is working I can see my plot in aprs.fi I don’t see any station on the radio itself, I hear the ISS but the radio does not receive. What is wrong ? 73 Rudi -- Verzonden via Gmail Mobile
