Re: Dedicated Ethernet Card

You can't expect grandma's old laptop to be able to hit 900+Mbit/s with the USB2 Ethernet dongle, you know what I mean? ;) The big question is: How'd you know my wife (grandma) had an OLD LAPTOP? This is kind of what I thought. Since I saw no issues up front I went back and reset everything to defa...

Regarding the PA calibration topic, is there anything I have to do if running a fresh install of Thetis? I noticed my stated wattage output is 100 watts when the drive slider = 50.

It should be enough to remind the operator to ID. You don't want a timer just throwing out ID transmissions randomly, probably over the top of someone else's transmission. It's amazing how lazy people want to be when it comes to the relatively trivial responsibility of properly ID'ing. At the end o...
