Bill Vaughn Kj7BIH Member Profile All Messages By This Member #9373 NK7Y is located in Bremerton, WA on the other side of the sound, is about 25 miles (or about 40km).? Why does this station (and all of the stations) show they are over 15,800 Km away? -- William (Bill) Vaughn Kj7BIH AE/VE Redmond, WA USA Dx10, FT991a? 2025-05-11_15-07-42.jpg

Settings > Winlink Express Setup?? (is your grid square correct?) ??????????????

Bill Vaughn Kj7BIH Member Profile All Messages By This Member #9376 I double-checked my location -- It's CN87WQ. I set it in VARA months ago and I have not touched the changes.? ? I also noted that in VARA FM, after VARA updates the list of gateways, it returns 0 stations. -- William (Bill) Vaughn Kj7BIH AE/VE Redmond, WA USA Dx10, FT991a?
John Sullivan All Messages By This Member #9377 开云体育 Hmmm.? That’s a mystery.? Must be a software glitch.? Maybe try reinstalling VARA-FM. ? toggle quoted message Show quoted text From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bill Vaughn Kj7BIH Sent: Monday, May 12, 2025 3:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [VARA-MODEM] Distance to station in kilometers seems to be off #varahf ?
