Hello, Recently I start having problems with my lvb tracker and I was wondering if some one can help me figure out whats going on . The tracker will turn on and will run for 2 or 3 seconds and will display a garbled text after. Like in this video http://youtu.be/fgx0zE4RelU or it will just go directly to the garbled text like on this video http://youtu.be/lRrx2Or_o0M after I switch it on and off . I checked all of the connections on the cables and they are ok .
Thanks
Yanko, NX9G
Hi Yanko
Make sure the tracker box is grounded well and power supply is good. I had terrible static electricity problems with mine.
You can also contact Mike Young [wb8cxo@ameritech.net] . Mike is the volunteer manufacturer of LVB Trackers for AMSAT

Thanks Dave,
I've already checked the power . I'm getting 13V on pin7 to ground and the grounding is good . Mike wb8cxo said that is the pic so we will see. This tracker worked with no problems for year and now I have this issues .
73 and looking forward to catch you on the birds

Good Deal
The PIC would have been my next guess :-)
