Re: I need your help
Hi Bruno Look at things this way: The X5105 is awaiting a signal on its RXD pin, so the Elektor will send a signal via its TXD pin. If the X5105 acknowledges a command it will send a signal to its

Re: Battery voltage
Agreed Doug however that 9vdc is what the battery monitor reports. That doesnt mean the battery is actually at 9vdc at the time. Thats the reason I believe the battery monitor is wacky on this rig. In

Re: Battery voltage
Ok Lou tnx. I dont know what to think at this point. The radio works fine until the battery gets down to around 9vdc and then it shuts down. It takes quite a few hours of on time before it gets to
