I have the truck almost ready to go, the gear is all there and the antenna array is to be put together permanently very soon - Are there any other mapping...
I guess no-one else will reply, so here's my 2 cents... As far as I know, there is only GPSS from the UK, and I can't claim I've ever used it myself but other...
... xastir does have the capability to plot APRS DF objects, but it does not have a direct interface to any DF hardware. If I ever get any DF hardware built I...
HI Bob, I'm not familiar with GPSS, but I did a DF program a while back that took GPS strings and bearing strings. I might have to go back through a couple of...
To Jason and Alan... Jason, I can provide a "dummy" PicoDopp that generates simulated DF messages if you wish, and also if you connect a GPS, it will feed...
... I appreciate the offer, but I can do all that with software test drivers (and have in fact done part of that already, including interfacing with a GPS). ...
No worries on the options Bob, I have been checking out all sorts of things and I have also contacted the author of OziExplorer which is by far the most...
Hi Bob, I wouldn't mind seeing the calculations you have, even 'tho I have already written a "DOS" map/DF program. You're right, the maps are the hard part!...
Hi, Anyone have a Delorme "Earthmate" (older RS-232 type), and CODE or the specifications for the "Rockwell binary format"? The new USB Earthmate at $100 is...
Tony, Rather than re-invent the wheel, I have the GPSS software up and running with my Doppler DF system. The author of the software (Robin) has been very...

Hello group, I have been looking at the PicoDopp with interest in both ELT/PLB and amateur foxhunt use in mind. I would be interested to hear from anyone who...
The hardest part about using it with the 121.5 is finding a receiver that will receive 121.5 on FM as most receivers capable of receiving in this band are ...
... An IC-Q7 can be set up to Rx in FM, and you can store it in one of your channels. The digital squelch is a little bit of a PITA, though. -- No virus found...
I do like Robin's software but cannot get a map to accurately calibrate in no matter how many combinations I try, I have used Google earth as Robin Specifies...
Thanks to the others for responding to this fellow' query. I get almost zero feedback from CAP people about successes or failures using the PicoDopp. Has ...
Tony... I can't offer any help, ( Bob Simmons ) sounds like you are far ahead of anyone else on this issue. I am not familiar with OziExplorer, and I'll bet ...
Bob, Yes thank-you. That was indeed the intent of my question. I am curious if anyone has used one to actually DF an ELT or at least a practice beacon. I would...
A) If someone would build mine for me, I could use it....with all these hurricanes the last couple of years, I just flat ran out of time, and B) those ...
I've sold several PicoDopps to CAP people but ( unless I'm forgetting someone ) I have yet to hear of any of them actually finishing and using it... hams don't...

This might be a dumb question but How does the Doppler Radio-Direction Finder tune into a frequency and not all of them.. is it a comparator circuit or a...
The short version is: A Scanner/receiver is switched very rapidly between 4 different antennas, causing a shift in the phase of the signal each time the...
Another CAP'er here, from California.... Agree with the Floridacyclist... I do have over 25 finds on the last 2 and a half years, some of them with L-PERS (the...
Thanks Juan... I don't know how the CAP is organized, and how much of their efforts are funded, compared to how much it relies on volunteers, or what is their ...

The signal needs something like a carrier wave to work... minimum of maybe 1/2 second. AM asnd FM signals will work, ( receiver must be FM ) SSB might work and...
No Bob, if i was catually far ahead of anyone else I'd be getting something actually achieved LOL. The folks on this forum are great and help in any way they...
