UIView32 is now in 'receive only' mode. What needs to be done to get it back in 'normal' mode?
What does “receive only” mean? Does it no longer command the TNC to transmit?
Exactly!?? I actually asked Roger to incorporate this feature.
Decades ago, I was involved with an APRS tracking effort for a volunteer fire patrol and watch in the California Sierras. In addition to the mobiles transmitting their positions, I wanted a receive-only monitor position at the state fire dept HQ that ran the VIP (Volunteers In Protection) program.? Since the staff there were NOT hams, I didn't want them to inadvertently cause transmissions.
Since then, I have used the RX-only mode many times at "look only" APRS demos at ham fests and radio club meetings.
