I am doing a redesign of the the Micro-Trak AIO, since the commie bastages who make the main switch can't seem to keep them in stock. The next gen board will...
Allen The mtt4 digis that I have, do they output data the same as the standard tt4? I think I finally got my communications problems solved, at least getting...
Russ, They use regular MT-TT4 chips. Do you mean that you can read and write to them from your PC, but they stop working in KISS mode? I am not exactly sure...
Allen yes I can read and write to the digi with my PC and tera-term, change settings and all that, and when 'QUIT', the digi restarts ok yet I don't see any...
Russ, Okay, I may be having a senior moment. You just have a regular MT-TT4, right, not one of the custom units I made in a Pelican case? It sounds like you...
Allen, I have two of the custom mt-tt4 digis with the 8 watt, single freq. transmitter. These are in the small (tt3-AIO) size yellow pelican case. Yes CDMode...
I found 2 posts in the archives describing ways to force a transmission on the MT300 - ground pin 11 (PTT) on the TT3 controller chip (Msg 738), or use the 2nd...
Grounding pin 11 will send a MIC-E position report immediately upon the release of the contact, and it will use the last valid GPS position in memory. If you...
Allen, Â My MT-8000 seems to have ceased working. I have flown my plane twice since the last time it was received on APRS, and the last time I was tracked,...
Searched Google and this forum and read docs... Is the baud rate of the M/T 8000 v 1.2 fixed at 4800 to correspond with the GPS2 puck? I'm testing several GPS...
I'm getting three green LED's followed by one red repeatedly on my new MT8000-FA. GPS puck has logged in (checked via serial), but it is not transmitting. I'm...
The MT-8000 accepts 4800 Baud only, the industry standard NMEA rate. 73, Allen VHS ... From: ve4yz <ve4yz@...> To: MicroTrak@yahoogroups.com Sent: Fri, Aug...
George, A nine volt transistor radio battery does not supply sufficient current to run the MT-8000 FA, and will go into a continuous "reset" mode whenever it...
I do have a special TT3 chip that will work in the MT-8000 (not the 8000 FA) that will handle a 9600 baud GPS. Email me off-list if interested. Byon...
George, Â You also can get a 12V "Industrial Super Heavy Duty" lantern battery at Radio Shack that will work fine. Tom Hunter 805-202-4261 ... From:...
I have 2 6v2.4ah batteries I got at home depot or lowes (used for emergency exit signs) that are rechargeable in series it is 12v and will run the 8000fa for...
The MT-8000 FA can ( heck, it will) be blown up by voltages above 13.2 volts, so if you are going to use the 14.2 volt battery pack array, please use a...
Sorry if this is a duplicate, my last one didn't show up...(if it's moderated, you can ignore this one)... I tried the 8 AA's as suggested (12v), and got a...
Spent some time on this tonight, did the 8 AA batteries at 12 v, I got it to get the solid green light, it does that for about 1.5 minutes, so I assume it is...

It does connect, when I try to read/version it works fine...when I try to write it gives Write Failed (code 128 0)...but it seems to have written, when I close...
I agree that the regulator is a must. Any project I do usually also has the "Idiot Diode and Fuse" included to avoid smoke testing on wrong polarity. I know...
Duh, I didn't realize what that enclosure was; not that I don't brush my teeth a couple of times a day. That's what happens when you get old and buy in bulk...
Alright, I've got it sending! I can hear it on my cheapo handheld...but so far it hasn't been picked up by a station (there are one or two in my area)...last...
