I figured it out.... I was using the G4HFQ software. As soon as I did an APRS Reset and hand programmed the aprs settings everything started working fine. I could transmit and receive beacons while in monoband mode. Not sure why, but thats what was going on.

no as soon as I go back to "dual band" it starts recieving and sending packets again....

I have the 1.3 update and when I set it to monoband my radio does not beacon or receive packets from other stations.... I have the APRS set up on the left I have a lock of 7 sat's. Any ideas as to what the issue is?

ok so i am still learning all this APRS Stuff.... if you connect your nuvi does it show all the other aprs stations around you on the screen or does it just provide the gps info for your radio to beacon out? Thanks

I was wondering if you do this mod were you still able to do the software flash? Any issues since you have done the MOD? Thanks for a great service Molecule!

Any idea if the Cable sold by Bob g4hfq (who sells the software aas well) will work for the update? Thanks

Issues with the "WIVES" Dude, how many you got? I have enough problems with just my one!

The same could be said to our "Find a Different Hobby Friend!" He doesn't know anything about this guy other than he like to 4 wheel and is starting to get interested in ham radio. I would bet that once he gets started in 2 meter he broadens his interest into HF. The hobby is great but the...

Why? He is showing an interest in the hobby, don't run him off. At least he is asking questions. When you are dead in a year or two maybe he will pick up you 2x1 that you have been using to bitch about us new guys. Its old cranky bastards like you that make this hobby no fun at times. Your...

Well I was thinking more of a Mother &%$@$!

the HT can be carried on the plane. I do it every day. AND can be used until the door of the aircraft is closed. The HT falls into the same catagory as your cell phone does as far as the aircrew is concerned. The only time I have had an issue with TSA going thru the xray machine was when the...
