The self survey will go green after it has completed the survey as will the stored position.

The only two yellowed are "Self Survey Activity" and "Stored Possition". I'll do some reading of the manual before I go messing with any of the settings. Next thing to do is save up for the 10GHz transceiver that this will be used to keep on frequency, and think about making some form of portable power supply. Has anyone done any tests as to how far out voltages on the +12 and -12 Volt lines can go before the Thunderbolt goes out of lock? One of the problems with using batteries out in the field is the weight. However, I guess I could probably manage a couple of lightweight 12V Gell Cells in series, and then some voltage regulators to give the 3 rails for the supply. Seeing that the power requirement isn't that great on the mains PSU, I would guess that a well charged, small, pair of gell cells would do?
