ssb-sprom application issues.

Mon, 23 Jun 2008 17:41:55 -0700

I've written about this several times and it seemed to have gone unanswered.
I have been trying to modify antenna and antenna gain values and it appears that the wrong data is being modified. 


Will this be addressed or is the applications functionality of no  
concern?



The source used in the ssb-sprom app was taken at 1:15am EST June  
17th so it was the latest available from git 24 at that time.





Here's my session and it's clear that something is wrong: (two  
examples given, due to size I didn't provide all the tests, had  
issues adjusting antennas)
