Phil, Pin 1 momentary Force TX Position beacon Pin 3 Ground (center of switch) Pin 6 switch profile
You can set profile switching however you want in the OTconfig program, under the Profile Switching Tab. I set mine to profile 2 when the switch is off (WIDE1-1 DX mode) Switch left profile 1 (No Path local mode) Switch momentary right forced PTT I set it that way since my profile 1 has no path, profile 2 has path WIDE1-1. When forcing a position beacon it also has a WIDE1-1 path since profile is open. In California a single hop WIDE1-1 is all that is necessary. If you save the photos of my switch, you can enlarge them enough to read the text info on the pictures. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tracker2/photos/album/2016843644/pic/list Alan > I picked up an On - Off - (On) (for momentary tx testing) Switch today to > toggle the Tracker Profile via the accessory port.
