HI Dan,
As Dave, K8CC, pointed out, when you are in the freq centered band map, you
cannot use CTRL --> to select stations. You have to be in the fixed bandmap
position. To select this, use the OPTIONS command and select the fixed
position band map. One problem I had with this is that there is room for
only 25 spots. On the higer bands, this fills up quickly and you cannot
keep track of the entire band. What I do is change the time to live for a
spot from the default 30 minutes to 10 minutes. This wa, spots older than
10 minutes are replaced with newer spots. That way, I can "see" more of the
band.
Dave - K8CC,
I wonder if it would be possible to add a feature to the fixed position
bandmap to scroll down when you come to the bottom of the list so you can
see the whole band?? On 10 Sunday, I had so many spots that I could only
see about 150Khz of the band and people were all the way from 28.3 to 28.9
Thanks,
John - WA3KPP
