To John WA4WDL: The coordinates out of my current (fixed) position calculated by the SirF GPS and the tbold during a 48h survey are different. On a map this differences makes up a shift of up to 100m around my true qth. With other words if I would (and could) use the tbold as a mobile GPS I woul

Peter, My TB is running continuously during months. It draws about 7 W using the black PWR-supply proposed by Tom (TvB). In the room at about 22 °C it does show 32.43 °C, I never passed 37 °C. So I would propose to net go beyond the 40 °C internal temp. reading. I will manufacture a wooden box wi
