VFO Offsets

Post by G4KCM »

Hi,

Firstly thank you for the great work, I really like V2!

It may have been mentioned before but the VFO Offset will not take a negative value, a positive offset works fine but negative does not. It used to work in the 'old' version.

One other minor point which is easily fixed is that mode SX would be useful in the default satellite modes. Very easy to edit for the end user but given that QO-100 now appears in the satillite list the inclusion of mode SX as a default would compliment this.

Once again thank you and best 73.

Clive,

Have you tried the "cog wheel" to the right of the frequency display?

VFO Offset is noted in the Users Guide on Page 20.

BTW - I was able to get the negative value to work.

As for your suggestion please add that to the V2 Feature Suggestions Topic.

Hi Nolan,

Thanks for getting back to me, indeed the 'cog wheel' was my first approach and then also the offset setting in the CAT Interface field of the main program configuration but neither will go negative for me. If I remove the (-) the offset I enter is applied in the positive direction no problem. I have only used v2.2 and v2.3 and experience the same issue in both. As I mentioned it worked fine in the 'old' version.

Best regards

Clive
