[Apologies if you receive this message twice. It went to both the opentracker and tracker2 groups]
I discovered an issue with Otwincfg last night that is not so much of a bug but a "gotcha". When you use the "Copy Profile" button (from either profile), it not only copies the data in the Profile window, but ALSO COPIES THE DATA IN THE PROFILE SWITCHING WINDOW! I would have had a real problem today if I hadn't double checked the profile switching on my tracker before writing the config to the tracker. I had setup Profile 1 and Profile Switching with my desired values, then went to Profile 2 and pressed the 'Copy from Profile 1' button to update Profile2. Not only did it copy Profile 1 to Profile 2, it also copied the Profile Switching data for Profile 1 to the Profile Switching data for Profile2. In my humble opinion, this is a bad thing. The Profile Switching setup is not part of either profile and there is no indication that data on another screen has been changed. I can think of no reason why you would ever want the same values for each profile switch. It would only cause the tracker to continuously switch profiles and if you had the "Beacon on Profile Switch" enabled, you have just killed the APRS frequency in your local area. Scott, please change Otwincfg to not copy the Profile Switching data when you press the 'Copy from Profile' button. -- Bob Poortinga K9SQL <http://www.linkedin.com/in/bobpoortinga> Bloomington, Indiana US
