[TowerTalk] Anyone using 4O3A's Antenna Genius products?

[Matt Lovewell]

I use the 8x2 remotely.  I don't recall ever having a problem where i had to reset it, but i would make sure you could remotely cycle your 12v supply on and off just in case.

For some reason i cant get the app to run on my windows 10 laptop though it runs fine on my 5 other windows 10 PCs and windows 8.1 and 7 pcs.   I haven't yet reported the issue to Ranko, however.

The bad card only affected one side of the switch so I was still up and running so I could work dx between contests.
