Hi Fer
Did you replace the LCD with the same device model or a different one?
If it was a different model, could you let me have the details of the old one so I could check to see if the Tracker works within its specification?
Many thanks.

Hello
Wondering if someone can help.
I just finish to build an LVB tracker for a friend of mine. All works fine with NOVA but during a satellite pass the display stuck as in the picture:

All other functions are OK and the tracker is still tracking the satellite. A quick restart (power off / power on) and display works again but after some minutes it is again stuck. It seems just only a display problem.
Same behavior with other satellites passes.
I built a couple of LVB units and I have been using an LVB tracker with NOVA for years without problems.
Any ideas ?
