Re: Pat Menu on Hampi w3djs
I haven't installed Dave's image but I read that he left out a couple of components needed for pat menu. Try running sudo apt-get install jqsudo apt-get install yad
and see if that helps. --

Re: New modem and Hotspot tools issue
I have. If I turn it off and back in again it recovers the normal WiFi signal for a while then reverts back to the double arrows. Occasionally it will drop all together to the arrows with the red x¡¯s then say no WiFi devices available. Like it forgets it has a WiFi module. On reboot it comes up normal for a while then goes back to double arrows.?

I ran into a weird GPS issue during field day. The GPS was working fine. I had a lock and everything was good on the pi. Next I plugged in an external USB thumb drive (something I normally don't do in the field) and the GPS stopped. Not sure what's causing this and I hope to dig into it later this week. The external thumb drive is only a data drive that I use to backup the home directory. The GPS didn't start working again until I removed the thumb drive and rebooted the pi. I have been able to repeat this again and again. Try unplugging all non essential USB devices and see if this helps. --

Re: Hamclock Update fails
Try using the BAP update script to update Ham Clock. Even though it doesn't show it needs an update, put a check mark beside hamclock. This will force it to update the app. It will also give you the option to change the install size. --

For my pi's that use the , I use this case and leave the top plate off. If anyone else has found a case that actually fits, I would love to hear about it. --

In following the Build-A-Pi setup, I notice that the basic case does not work with the power hat.
What other cases has this group selected when using the power hat?

Re: New modem and Hotspot tools issue
I'm just reading about this issue Michael. sorry if this seems simplistic but have you clicked the double arrows and a dialogue should appear that says "Turn on wifi"?

Hi all,
Any ideas on how to get the Kenwood TH-D74 sending and receiving email messages with Pat? It has a KISS TNC built-in...

Re: New modem and Hotspot tools issue
Fresh Flash of Raspbian OS, set localization options, NO Build a pi....let it sit for about 30 minutes...Double Arrows are back!
Obviously has nothing to do with Build a Pi. Either it is something hardware related to the pi itself or it is my new router forcing something.
Guess I will just have to live with it for now.

Opening Hamclock (ESPHamclock), it notifies that v. 2.47 is available, and asks to download it. This update fails with an overwrite error. I know why this is happening, since the BAP puts the program in a different location than the developer expects ( /pi/ESPHamclock ). Running BAP does not show that this program needs updating.
No biggie, I am sure that you have bigger fish to fry, but ............. :)

My issues are identical! I did check, and i ran both systemctl is-active gpsd systemctl is-active chronyd, and they say active. When I run gpsmon -n? it shows no satalites. Yet I do have a steady blink on the gps unit. I am totally flustered. Were in is sitting I ussually pick up quite a few sats. Now if we can find a solution. Stell works with the PI3. I did an install that had other issues with the 4, but the gps was fin. Rather than try to find the issue, I decided to start over, and now everything else is fin but the GPS???

Re: New modem and Hotspot tools issue
Thank you for the suggestions. I have gone to a back up sd card first to see if something has been corrupted in the card. I had to use Jason¡¯s nuclear option on the other card to get the flmsg to update using build a pi. I do not recall how long after that I got the new modem. I will try the update_config=0 next if this doesn¡¯t work.?

Has anyone used the Pat menu on Hampi W3DJS raspberry pi image?? I try to run it, the hourglass spins but the pat menu doesnt come up.
The only thing I've done to the image is remove pulse audio for a bluetooth speaker issue.
Any ideas what I can try? The pat menu videos look to show clean installs

Couple suggestions for you:
First, delete the duplicate entries in wpa_supplicant.conf.
This can confuse the Pi.?
Second, try changing the line update_config=0 so your file looks like below. I¡¯m wondering if the system feels free to try to change its networking config on the fly.?
Also, when the network is down you can try to run the ifconfig command and post the results.
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=0
country=US
?
network={
? ? ? ? ssid="CenturyLink9131"
? ? ? ? psk="****"
? ? ? ? key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}
One caveat, update_config=0 May cause an issue with hotspot tools.

Did you change the resolution in in raspi config?
Sound like you need to run the following:
sudo raspi-config
select advanced options
select A5 Resolution
select your desired screen resolution ( I change it to 1920x1080 but you may want something different depending on the computer you are using to VNC with).
reboot
BTW
When I set up my Pi I do it headless.? After copying image to the sd card, I add two files to the root of the sd card.??
ssh (to allow me ssh access)
wpa_supplicant (configured for my network to set up my wireless network)
When I first ssh into the Pi I run raspi-config to do some basic setup including turning on VNC and adjusting screen resolution.? Then I can use VNC from there.
Good luck.

Re: New modem and Hotspot tools issue
Lots of research seems to be a sampling of this issue going back several generations in various forms.
My hypothesis...something on the network is fighting the pi for the address. I have set a static ip address to 192.168.0.230. This was the address before the new modem. So far it is stable for nearly 1 hour. I won't call it solved yet but it is looking? promising.
