I was able to help this dude. And thanks, Michael, for sort of indirectly pointing out the necessity for mentioning this: Every time the Voter/RTCM firmware is "upgraded" (well, at least we *hope* so :-) ), there is a possibility that a "new" setting/feature was added that did not exist in the previous version, and, therefore can cause a situation of there being a "rogue" value in a "new" configuration parameter, since it "lives" in configuration "space" that "did not exist" in the previous version. Therefore, the "best practice" for upgrading the Voter/RTCM is to do a "factory initialization" of configuration parameters every time you upgrade. Obviously, you dont *HAVE* to, but if you dont you run the risk of "something weird going on". Remember the new slogan for this -- "When it doubt, zero it out".. :-) Jim WB6NIL Date: Tue, 13 Aug 2013 14:33:59 -0500 From: mhebert1975@gmail.com To: tim.sawyer@me.com CC: app_rpt-users@ohnosec.org Subject: Re: [App_rpt-users] RTCM simulcast help Still need help with this.

Playing around with the settings on both RTCMs and found it works with menu 7 set for 600 and menu 18 set for 1. If I set menu 18 to 0 the non master client, it will not transmit.

I just grabbed the latest svn code and it did not compile for me at all. The error it gave me I would need to check tomorrow, as I'm currently not at the computer.
