Hi,
Are you able to get into the Bootloader? I once had a similar issue and solved it by reflashing the firmware.

My TT4 powers up with a constant green (power) and yellow (carrier detect) LED's lit.? This is with or without a? radio connected. I am unable to communicate

Robert,
That's too bad. I have not talked to Scott for several years now, and I last saw him in Dayton at the Hamvention ( And dinosaurs walked the earth) He had changed his emphasis from radio to doing some kind of lighted hoola-hoop project. As far as I know, his radio-stuff webstore is still up and running.?

That's not what's holding me back. Like a lot of hams, I have to watch
my radio budget. As is often the case, I need to sell some things before
I buy something else.
FWIW, Scott Miller at Argent Data used to sell an Argent Data T2micro
built into the housing of a Friendcom 5 watt VHF radio. I bought two of
those many moons ago and built them into Pelican 1030 cases with AA
battery packs and GPS receivers. I think what you've done with the TNC,
radio, and GPS all on one board makes a lot of sense. And, the case you
are using is smaller than the 1030 which adds to the appeal.
Good job!

Bob,
The four pin header adapter just slides into the holes on the board for programming. It is an interference fit.? If someone had to? the need to program the unit very often, they could install pin headers, male or female on the board. Because the only controls are inside the case, I did not want any pins on the board where you may have to reach in blindly and perforate your fingers.?
This four pin programming arrangement is one we use on pretty much all the Micro-Trak products, and unlike the 2.5mm jacks that we used on the last generation MT-AIO,? they never wear out. The four pin header on the TT-USB cable allows us to scavenge power from the programming computer's USB port to power the low voltage parts of the AIO without lighting up the power amplifier. ( Some USB ports get irritated when they have 20 Watts transmitters hanging on them) This is the first released version of this transmitter, so it is likely that there will be changes to future versions and we definitely appreciate customer input. If a right-angle pin header is the only thing holding you back from ordering one, I will be happy to solder one in for you!
After years of buying boatloads of Pelican 1030 cases, Pelican grew a wild hair and decided to stop producing the 1030 cases in solid colors ( Except high gloss black) and they now have all clear cases with colored rubber inserts instead. I found that colored inserts in clear cases made for very effective solar ovens, and so we gave up on Pelican cases.?
The current case is from S3, and is the model T-2000 ( "The Terminator" !) Instead of having a rubber insert, it has a 360 degree O-ring gasket. The case measures nominally 6 X 3.4 X 1.19, and before I started drilling holes in them, they were rated to handle submersion to 80 feet for 30 minutes. The naked case weighs a bit less than 8 ounces. The complete AIO ( without batteries or antenna) weighs under 11 ounces.?

I'm not understanding how the programming header attaches to the board.
The manual says that the programming header adapter is "plugged into the
four holes on the MT-AIO". Is this adapter a friction fit in the holes?
Would it be possible to solder a right-angle header into the holes and
then slip a female header onto the pins for programming? I'm thinking a
right angle header with pins bent towards the batteries so that the case
still closes. The idea of plugging and unplugging pins in a circuit
board concerns me. And, I'll grant you that my concern may be unwarranted.
I think your earlier MT-AIOs used a Pelican 1030 case. This new version
appears to use a smaller case. Is that correct?
Thanks for your help.

Bob, et al,
The new unit uses an SMA female, just like the previous version. The connector is mounted to the case, rather than soldered to the PCB, so that if the connector is damaged,? it does not take surgery to the PCB to repair the unit. The antenna is removable and you can use the AIO with most 2 meter antennas ( I would not try it using one of those 1 inch stubs with 20 Watts, however)?
I would never tempt nature by saying a product is "waterproof", since there is literally no such thing, but its a tight case with an O-Ring seal, and the case perforations to mount the PCB and the antenna are closely fit and very tight. (It is probably more watertight than the Pelican case I used previously , which handled brief immersion with no damage.) If I get up the nerve to give one "The float test" I will let you know how it handles it!? I am confident that it will be fine for the tougher applications, like SAR, where gear tends to get a beating, and it should tolerate brief immersion.?
The programming header adapter will have to be removed to close the case. The unit will include the programming cable and programming header.?

Re: Baofeng UV-5R / TinyTrak 4 - Configuration
Thank you for the suggestions.
I should clarify, I had been testing with VOX in various settings; was not getting desired results, then went back to the VOX OFF.
I updated settings per your recommendations and set my VOX - and it seems to be transmitting while in the basement. Now, I need to get it in the air to reach another digi.
I feel like I am making progress.? :)
Thanks again.

Re: Baofeng UV-5R / TinyTrak 4 - Configuration
Well, a few highlighted things below: BPERIOD is 0 ?? ????????? Set this to about 600 for testing, this should generate a TX packet on power up ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?? change it after you know everything is working
PPERIOD is 3600????? ? Set this to about 120 for testing, change it after you know everything is working
PKTOCOM is FALSE?? Set this TRUE so you can see internally generated packets on an attached computer
So, you will only send a packet ever hour (3600 seconds).? During testing that is an awful long time to wait! Since VOX is off, how are you expecting the radio to go into TX? ? I am not familiar with the Baofeng.? Does it have a dedicated PTT line, or is it coupled with the Mic input (meaning JP8 would be needed)
That should at least get you to know if the radio is going into TX mode.

Re: Suddenly getting "Unsupported Packet Format" looking at raw packets with TT4
"Unsupported packet format" is just
aprs.fi reporting that it's parser doesn't understand that
specific packet.?? It doesn't affect (AFAIK) other packets from
the same station.
Why are you using a non-standard
"to-call" or destination callsign??? You're actually specifying
that you want to run in the "K2CZH" alternate network.?? From
aprs101.pdf (a document you should read and study if you're going
to be reading raw packet formats):
Any other destination address not included
in the specific generic list or the other categories mentioned
above may be used in Alternate Nets (ALTNETs) by groups of
individuals for special purposes. Thus they can use the APRS
infrastructure for a variety of experiments without cluttering
up the maps and lists of other APRS stations. Only stations
using the same ALTNET address should see their data.

Re: Suddenly getting "Unsupported Packet Format" looking at raw packets with TT4
Thanks!? Somehow I missed that.? I'm still getting occasional errors but nowhere as many.? I wonder if all the unsupported packets was why I wasn't appearing on aprs.fi maps (even with a 50' high antenna at 25w and watching the HT recieve the outgoing packets).? Now its getting through alot more often.
Thanks,
Dave K2CZH
