Hi! Good question. Hold the TX steady and adjust the RX. If You adjust TX, the other guy have to adjust also his RX and then his TX... a mess. It is much easier if everybody adjust only his own RX and keeps TX steady. 73 Jari OH3UW _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
