[OZAPRS] Help with THD7 (Ian Mills)

[Tony Hunt]

I dont know much about the D7 but has it got a AIP (advanced intercept
point) setting??

This really tends to steal the VHF sensitivity on a D700 . Its Menu 1-3-5
on
a D700 ..Decoding PCSAT is pretty useless with this turned on with a D700
..
If you have it turned ON or setup in a PM then its easy to forget..

Its really easy to tell if its turned OFF , just drive into the CBD ..

stations
and messages as it used to. I seem only to have them decoded when I have
line-of-sight with the digi and I get a full strength signal. I really
noticed it when yesterday evening PCSAT went almost overhead (86 degrees)
and I could barely hear packets while monitoring, yet my positions were
uploaded without problems. I receive audio without problems so I think the
APRS receive side may need alignment?
