No Beacon


 
Edited

I running YAAC after a long while for the yearly bicycle event. ?I noticed when I select BCN after was able to update YAAC it will not transmit a beacon. I checked the normal suspects but cannot get it work. ?My packet engine is direwolf running as a Kiss TNC.?
?
I also have tried sending APRS messages too and on this I see the RF go red but nothing is transmitted. ?
?
What are the common reasons YAAC will not beacon to help find my error. ?

Have you examined the files in YAAC/logdir ?

Typical no-beacon reasons:

1. The beacon record isn't enabled (on the Beacon tab in expert-mode configuration).
2. The RF port (AGWPE, Serial_TNC, etc.) is not configured for transmit-enabled.
3. The RF port is not associated with the named beacon record (for multi-RF-port configurations with different beacons for each port).
4. The PTT isn't correctly configured in your software TNC.
5. The PTT signal path isn't correctly wired to the radio.
6. The PTT polarity isn't set correctly.
