Yes. Each morning I check to see if the backup ran overnight and if the
file size is appropriate for what it should be. If it's Zero I start

I have a portable monitor made by AOC. The stand folds into the back for
convenient storage and transport. Connects to computer via USB. Very
convenient and good for tight spaces.

Jerry,
Can you change the monitor/sidetone level? How about the RF Gain?
If not, check the ribbon cable inside - unplug and reseat.
If still no solution, it is possible you have a bad encoder.

If you obtained this utility from Elecraft and used it, then you've done the
