<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Questions</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>+ Is the FMI ( GPS ) the Garmin ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>+ Does the OT3 do these functions ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>+ What do you mean by "speaker" ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Suggestions</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>+ Do you have access to a scope ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>+ Or even a logic probe</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>+ You need some basic test gear</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>+ Configs, baud rates, parity.length </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>+ How would the test tones test help your situation
? I assume you are plugging in to the OT3 with a PC and removing the Garmin
?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>+ Does the OT3 have two different modes ? TNC and
Tracker ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>I assume this all works somewhere else, it is a
config or connection issue ?</FONT></DIV>

350 & OT3m</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Good morning, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2
face=Arial>
I'm after some help with my APRS mobile set up. I've got a FT8800R, Garmin
Nuvi 350 & Argent Data System OT 3 TNC. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The OT3 is operating the radio correctly. My
problem is the garmin 350 is not displaying POI, receiving messages or
sending any messages from the FMI (GPS unit). I have the correct Garmin cable
from Argent Data Systems. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial> I have tried the configuration program for
the Open Tracker 3 & cant get any of the test tones to work (I cant hear
them form my speaker or another radio).Can anyone shed some light - I'm
getting frustrated with it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Cheers,</FONT></DIV>
