This probably means that somehow your saved beacon doesn't work with changes since build 201, and is causing the initialization of the Beacon tab to fail.

Please repeat opening the expert-mode Configuration dialog, then copy the YAAC.out file (in your configured logs directory) and email it to me. This will contain the recent progress of YAAC, including the error message of why the Beacon tab couldn't be created. From that file, I can figure out what went wrong and make a fix for it.

Subject: [yaac-users] No Beacon tab in expert mode

Running version 204. I had upgraded from 201. Upgrade process did not work automatically, I did a fresh install and reloaded my saved xml file.

I am not seeing a beacon tab in the expert mode, that tab appears to be missing.

Tabs that I do see in order are:
General
Transmit
Digipeat
Ports
Status
Preferences
Behavior
Callsign DB

It is beaconing correctly, just wanted to look at the settings after the upgrade.

Thanks for any help!

Frank, I received your private email with the log, and found an interesting "feature". Did you rebuild your Raspberry PI (I can see the operating system type elsewhere in the YAAC.out file), and forget to set the the locale to the United States (instead of defaulting to Great Britain)? The peculiar reason YAAC is failing to show the Beacon tab is because you configured your beacon to display your listening frequency on the 70cm band, on an amateur frequency that is legal in the United States, but not in England. I also see that you imported your configuration from a save file, rather than entering it manually, which is how the "illegal" frequency managed to get in (because the configuration importer assumes that the configuration must have been legal to be there to be exported).

Anyway, because the beacon's monitoring frequency is out-of-band for your Pi's locale, the Beacon tab won't come up. I will fix this in the next build. In the meantime, use "raspi-config" to set your locale correctly to "en_US", and the problem will go away.

I've seen this problem before when users wanted to pick a reported frequency in the range 440-450MHz, and couldn't do it because the British locale doesn't allow it. You're the first one to figure out a way around the restriction. Congratulations. :-)

Hope this helps.
