Weather option

Post by kp4hf »

Hello,
Any way to disable the weather option? I don't use it.

Thanks.

Did you mean the Space Weather with A, K and the sunspots ? If yes there is no option to switch off. It´s hard coded in the main UI.
It´s an oversight for interested Hams and most of us find it useful.
73´s .. Juergen ... ALT-512 SDR (10W) , 50 m random wire at SG-211 autotuner, 2 x Xiegu G90 (20W HF TRX) one as portable Radio. Also TS-790E (40 W) for VHF/UHF with X-50 vertical and Duoband 4-Element LPDA.

unchecking the box does not stop the f11 weather tab from displaying here. I suggest may , since it is for cw, that it be moved to the cw window,

I wont ever use it here

Dave,

The F11 WX tab will remain on the Main UI, but it will not be refreshed with data when you un-tic the box.

If you prefer that the entire F11 tab be elsewhere put together a proposal and post in the Feature Suggestions portion of the Forum. With a good pitch, Lele might give that a consideration.

See attached picture for the option/tab. And yes disabling does not remove it.
Thanks.

It is not primarily for CW its for reference during any mode and many of us will use it when having a phone QSO, it will remain unless there are a large number of users objecting to its presence.
