Hello Everyone, I am using FPP to set up some FM92's. I am using a DOS window in Windows XP. All seems to be working OK, except I can't get the FPP program to...
Hi Don, FPP was made in the dark ages before Windows became popular, and was designed to drive a custom Philips Label printer as far as I can ascertain. It...
Remember, also, that when you install a printer under Windoze it asks a question about whether the printer will be used to print form DOS programmes. Saying...
What I would like to do is to get one of the dos printing utilities such as "prnt2file" to work with XP. If I could as I have in the past, printed to a text...
Correction!!! lpt1 not lpt2 net use lpt1\\8pe800\HPLaserJ /persistent:yes Naturally your own computer name and shared printer name must be used. Barry -...
I have a couple Fm93 's that I want to program. I have fpp and I have used the h/w 950293571290 and s/w 110007001009999 . when i use this I get an error# 107...
Hi Tom, The hardware and software codes don't look right if you want to use SELCALL. From my calculations you have set it to: FM93, 403-440MHz,12.5khz local...
Hi, I'm in urgent need of a VHF Mid Band (ie around 80 MHz) radio, that has narrow band capability (ie 12.5 KHz channels) for a volunteer organisation. I have...
Mal, How many radios do you need??? Michael ... Michael Van den Acker Laboratory Manager - Software and Networks RMIT University, School of Elect. and Comp....
Hi Michael, thanks for replying for my urgent job, just the 1, and I may have sourced 1 nearby. In the longer term I need as many as I can get, as long as they...
Hi Group, Just tried the below info supplied by Barry and works a treat on a XP Machine - Thanks Barry! Cheers, Mick. ... From: Barry To: FM900@yahoogroups.com...
Pleased to hear that! Thanks Barry ... From: FM900@yahoogroups.com [mailto:FM900@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Mr Mick Sent: Monday, 9 May 2005 6:59 PM To:...
Hello Everyone, I couldn't get the net use command to work with FPP. It set up the printer OK but wouldn't print. However the generic printer setup worked well...
Hello All, It was a great tip from Barry on the net use command! How ever some people might find that this doesn't work because most PCs by default have the...
It was my fault that I accidently typed lpt2 instead of lpt1. I did post a correction. I am interested in trying the generic printer method again and looking...
Hello Folks I was wondering if someone might be able to tell me how to get the FM900 to scan. The software code for the radio I have shows that it has scanning...
Hello Everyone, I am having some trouble tuning U band front ends. (70cm and CB) Two units I have set up came up perfectly, and two I can't seem to get better...
Paul, If it's a FM92, then the radio has two groups it can scan.. Put the digits '1' or '2' in the scan entry of each channel that you want scanned. Enter...
Hi Don, Welcome to FM900's most common problem! It sounds as if you may have tin whisker shorts or dry joints in the front end. These are a common problem with...
Hi All, I have a few repeaters for WICEN use here in Canberra that need to be modified to 12.5KHz channel spacing, and so I am looking for some Filter Crystal...
Hi Phil, I can't help with the filters, but wonder if this is going to be a general trend for WICEN to move to 12.5kHz, or is this for a dedicated link? Just...
Hi Mark, Actually, WICEN ACT & WICEN NSW have some 80 MHz & 159 MHz commercial allocations, and that is what the repeaters are for, not the Amateur Bands. We...
Mark has covered a good range of possibilities for poor sensitivity, but I will add that in my limited experience the only problem I have encountered so far is...
Hi Phil, All sounds good! I gather WICEN shouldn't have too much trouble getting a segment of the 420-430 band. In Victoria they have been able to keep some...
Hello Everyone, Thanks very much for the comments. A good Marconi signal generator emerged today. The result was that one front end proved to be OK, and...
I guess we'll be getting used to cleaning the whiskers out of our post-2006 radios on a regular basis :-( The tin whiskers problems in the FM900 are minor in...
hey one and all it has been a while posting here i have a remote fm900 fm92 it has been working fine for years untill recently after a storm the radio will not...
Just a couple of comments, the 'finals' could be crook and you will receive ok, so I would not rule that out. The red dot means that the power is out of range,...
