Thanks, Norm. With your help and that of a few others, I have my
beam headings all squared away.
However, I seem to have worded my packet window question poorly. I
have two packet windows open: the Packet Window where I log into my
cluster (dxc.n7tr.com) and the Packet Spots Window where filtered
spots are displayed.
I am able to log onto my cluster in the Packet Window and I see all
the spots scrolling past. However, nothing shows up in the Packet
Spots Window (and probably related, none of the spots show up on the Band Map).
How do I get the Packet Window to communicate with the Packet Spots Window?
Thanks again for everyones help.
Dick
