Subject: Disounted EMCOMM price list

?

Hi Jerry,

Feel free to pass this discounted price list along to all interested parties that are involved with ARES, EMCOMM operations, SHARES, MARS, etc. We have good inventory on all SCS modems and can process orders at current prices until our current stock is depleted which will be about 3 weeks from now.

73, Gary? K6AUD

Good morning ok I have running on my win7 pc remote to Linbpq 2
versions of VARA on 2 signalinks.. All works great..
Signalink one USB AUDIO CODEC (746PRO) Signalink two USB audio Codec
(706MKIIG)

Note the difference in case that is how I can quickly tell which radio
it is linked too ..
The correct parts all control the correct radios.

Here is the kicker.. If I add a 3rd Signalink the sound card is names :
3+ USB audio Codec (Icom2200H) for use with VARA-HF

It also keys the correct radio and listens to the correct radio.. But
now after adding this third signalink... the VARA linked to the 746
will no longer key the 746 but will now key the ICOM 2200H . I checked
all soundcards and they appear to disappear if I disconnect the
Signalinks one at a time and come back one at a time as I plug them back up..

Any thoughts.. Ya I know kind of a bit much.. But was really wanting
to try VARAFM...

May be a short attempt. Not spending more then a few days trying to
figure it out.

Thanks Jerry

I'd be interested in trying VARA to link two G8BPQ nodes in MSWIndows.?
Each station, so far, has a Raspberry PI and some plain old TNCs.? I'd
like to use VARA on HF to do BBS message forwarding between two networks
which are too far apart for VHF.? I'd be ok with having an MSWindows box
to run VARA and then connect over Ethernet (or whatever it takes) to the
Raspberry PI.?

Is something we can do with VARA-MODEM??

Moderators need to be Host Program specific. I can help with BPQ host.
We should compile a FAQ section in the WIKI.

Jeff,

Are you using a desk top or a lap top?

Tell me about the display.

Could it be that VARA is running but you just can't see the graphic?

Look at the VARA.ini file in the VARA directory and see that values are
in the Position section. The listing is Top Position = (value) and Left
Postion = (value) The numbers are indicating the number of pixels from
the top left corner of the screen to the top left corner of the VARA
graphic display. If the value shown is larger than the pixel size of
your display, the graphic won't be visible, it will be "off screen".

(In Windows 10, click the Start icon and type Display, then look for the
resolution setting. You should be using the recommended setting. The
VARA Position settings should be about half of the Windows numbers to be
visable on the screen.)

The top left corner of your display is 0,0. You can edit this file with
your text editor (note pad). Shut down RMS Express and the VARA modem
before editing the file. Put a number like 20 in both position values
and save the file. Restart VARA and RMS Express and see if the position
of the graphic remains on the screen.

Also, does RMS Express start the VARA modem itself, or do you have to
start it manually? I've read that if you start it manually, you should
start VARA modem first.

Just a thought. This may not be the problem at all, but it's worth checking.
