Re: Message box

 

That is too bad. Perhaps I am misinformed or have misunderstood, but I thought the whole purpose of APRS was to cater to the mobile user to provide a quick and easy method of reporting position, status, and brief messages. Mobile operation, by its nature, necessitates smaller screens and demands minimal operator actions to accomplish a task. The system should be driven to meet that situation, rather than make it more difficult for the primary purpose.

Maybe I am missing the point of APRS. Perhaps further investigation is in order.

It's because your window is too small. The rightmost controls in the footer are being drawn off-screen because they don't fit in the allowed window space.
There are menu choices to get you the same functionality in a smaller window.

Another question. On my base configuration, at the bottom of the screen,
there are three boxes, TO, VIA, and Message, followed by a SEND button.
I can put in a callsign, a path, and some text, hit send and it goes to
that station. However, on my just configured mobile, only the TO and VIA
boxes are visible. The TEXT box and the SEND button are missing.
Is this a configuration issue? Or because I am using a much smaller
screen (22" on base, 7" on mobile)?
Thanks,
