Well, that's too bad.

The 710 and Yaesu 400 both have a QSY tune feature where, if they receive that info formatted properly, you can set your voice channel to it with a push of a button, tone and all for repeaters.

I got my 710 doing the QSY automatically with the setting in the radio where it adds frequency, tone and offset itself from for voice channel. I'm not in a great coverage area at the house so I had to drift around some to find a good spot to play with the setup. You'll have to check the manual...

Sorry to have missed you guys! I went home and passed completely out. I was exhausted after the PMR trip and unpacking. I've still got a bunch of stuff to dry out. Hopefully next month will work out better!

It seems better but do you have a full copy? That one seems to have gotten resized. Thanks.

Alex and I both look pissed in that group shot. Anyone have a picture where we don't look like psychopaths? Haha!

Hey Vizard! Welcome aboard buddy!

Hmmm...

Yeah! Single hop off an I-gate IIRC. I'll have to check my log. I replied and thought I got the "ack" from your 400.

This weekend I went on a trail ride with some other OB members near Winchester. Another member, @theorangekl (Anthony) was also the and running APRS. We talked before hand and decided to play with our setups during the trip to explore APRS some more. Anthony arrived at group camp the night...

Due to the weather warnings, I'm not going to make it this evening. I hope everyone is safe out there. Maybe we can reschedule for next weekend, I'll have to check my calendar.

oh yeah! Thanks to @KAC for setting this up and getting everybody organized!

Had an awesome time guys! Just made it home and grabbed a shower. Gotta dry out my gear and get it all put away now. Looking forward to the next run and thanks again for inviting us to the camp!

Hi Vizzy! :grinning: Hate you're missing this one buddy. Wanted to see that VK live!

Thanks for the write-up Jon! Just got mine set up to text this morning!

Unless the weather forecast improves significantly in the next couple hours, we'll be day tripping it. Might come back by the group camp afterward to check it out and hang out for a bit after the ride though.

I was playing around with my APRS setups this evening. Using an old tablet and a Baofeng UV-5R I was able to send an APRS message to my TM-D710GA in my Xterra. I was also able to display the location of the Xterra on Backcountry Navigator on the tablet via received packets and the built in...

This is the same table I carry. It's worked extremely well. If I can ever afford the Frontrunner rack for my X though, I'm going to look into one of their tables to go with it just for ease of storage.

Let us know if you come out this way! There's lots of easily accessible camping in this area. There's Douthat State Park and Lake Moomaw near me and lots of other national forest camp sites. Plan it around our meetup or just drop us a line. I'd be happy to show you around and give suggestions on...

The BBQ is the Western Va Meet-up in Roanoke Sunday, not directly related to this event but everyone would be welcome there too.
