Re: Hotspot Tools issue with home SSID
Hello Joseph, I had an issue with my wifi when there was a space in the SSID. Seems like the Rpi wouldn't connect up. I do have other Rpi's at my house, but they are for non-ham things that don't use the Hotspot script. All was fixed when I changed?my SSID and removed spaces. 73's ? -- Mike WB8ERJ
Geeze! What is he up to now?

Hotspot Tools issue with home SSID
GA all
I don't have screencaps handy just now, but I can get them if needed.
When I open Hotspot Tools and select "Managae SSIDs", I might have two networks saved, but there will be four lines. One of the networks has three words with spaces separating them, and each word appears as a separate line.
Ideally, I'd like each network to appear as a separate line, no matter how many spaces are in one name.
It's my dad's network so I can't just go ahead and rename it without spaces.?
Has anyone noticed this before??
Thanks for everything you do for the hobby, Jason! I love the script and have been using it since V2.

I don¡¯t have any experience doing this but I would think you could use a cheap SDR receiver dongle and software to look at the signal. You should be able to see how wide it is on the screen.

Unless you changed the account name, it should be pi for username. ?Should also be your pi password.?

I was able to ping the IP. I then was able to verify that VNC was enabled. Now I can¡¯t remember what username and password combo to use when settiup the vnc connection. I should remember but this one brain doesn¡¯t retain like it use to. I thought is was
pi-star then password. Nope. Tried raspberry pie then password. Nope. Then
pi@IP. Nope.?
Thanks for all the help! ?Where would this hobby be without such great Elmers like all if yoo! ?

First I would recommend adding a blank text file - ssh.txt -? then using putty or what have you on windows or terminal on macs. ssh into the build a pi, run "sudo raspi-config" turn on? VNC in? interfacing options and don't for forget to set VNC resolution in display option ,set it to a higher resolution to make sure you can read it on your remote screen. create a? "wpa_supplicant.conf " put it on the sd card's boot side . I will? add the layout here so you can copy and paste it. Hope this helps..

Another possible answer:? Sometimes when I boot my Pi it fails to recognize my Wifi so I have to wait until the Hospot timer tries again.? I set mine to 2 minutes.? Then it works as usual.? For some reason it turns on the hotspot on boot and I end up with a 10.10.10.10 address.? If you connect Ethernet at boot you can always come in on that address and see what is going on with Conky.? Your router might be hanging on to the old address (the way it should) as addresses are given a lease when they are assigned and that address will continue to be used as long as the device is used within the lease period.? Often youu can VNC into it using the hostname of the Pi, like vnc raspberrypi? try that.

Most obvious question: Did you enable VNC in raspi-config, Interfaces, VNC?

Good evening All,
Created my first Build A Pi SD card last night.? Added a bunch of Jason's tools, Winlink, Direwolf, Hamclock, Conky etc.
I shut the Pi down last night, and returned this eveining learn more and add more to it.? Powered it up and can't VNC into.
I Go to my router and can see raspberrypi.? It has the same IP that it assigned to it last night.? But I cannot VNC into it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Latest Pat Winlink and rig contrl

Jason,
Something to note. The ARDOP PTT config is available in two locations in PAT Menu. One is in Manage PAt Winlink as you described before, the other is in Settings/Config. I had to make sure both were set to yes before my station would cooperate.

Re: Js8call program features too large to use
#js8call
Just tried a few digferent resolutions again and its always the same with the js8 program. All the features are too large and wont match its window size like the terminal window. Terminal woll adjust sizing of letters amd numbers. Js8 is keeping all of its icons and things too massive to use.

Re: Js8call program features too large to use
#js8call
It seems like things like terminal frame are fine with me, just the js8 program.

Re: Js8call program features too large to use
#js8call
I'm having the same issue. My PI 3 A+ is nicely set up for my desktop or Toughbook. I tried to change the resolution?on the pad and it was a lost cause. I may have to get an Android phone terminal and ssh in and use sudo raspi-config to change the?resolution?that way.
