Moleculo, what site do you use for the map? How were you able to tell where my last beacon was picked up ? Thanks

Thanks for the help, I just recently changed the path to wide 2-2 because I noticed that the stations that were being seen had that setting. How quickly do the maps reset ? As quickly as my Garmin?

This is my first experience with APRS, I set up my VX8R like it says to in the manual but when I try to find myself on Find Me or the other sites they show me in the same spot four days ago even though I have had it running pretty much every day since then. I usually have the "A" band scanning...

Yup, I didn't buy mine from there, the last time I bought a rig from them it was about twelve years ago. I noticed when I was "shopping" that they mentioned the green display. Interesting to see if they change their ad copy now or leave it like it is.

I sent an email to Texas Towers and recieved this responce; Our webmaster probably used Yaesu's sales brochure for the VX8R, which shows some of the display shots as amber and some as green. The brochure makes no mention of the display being capable of two different colors. The green...

Texas Towers in their description for the VX8R state that the display is "switchable from amber to green". I have read my manual from back to front several times and I can't find anywhere how to do it so I called Texas Towers and asked the salesperson and he was adamant that it was possible to...

RT Software for VX 8R I received the RT Systems software and cable yesterday and got it all set up ahead of time with the freqs that I wanted in the banks of my Yause VX 8r. The radio came today and in under 60 seconds, Bada Bing ! I had it all set up. I'm very impressed with both, I ordered...

If you don't mind a little advice why don't you get your Tech license and buy a used 2 meter rig and talk on the local repeaters ? The FM audio is much better than am, you can talk farther legally, and the quality of people you talk to is much better than the foul mouth CB'ers. I have been a...
