Okay, but where am I getting the rmpatheng.exe rmweng.exe and rmweng.hlp files? The archive only has the various language update files. I copied the English updater file though and ran that one.
Thanks! I'll try it. Took me a whole 3 hours from start to get to this point with all the interruptions. That's my biggest issue! -----Original Message----- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Jerry Richardson Sent: Wednesday, September 23, 2009 10:13 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Link Planning Software Crash course: First uninstall anything to do with Radio Mobile Next download and install Radio Mobile Deluxe: http://www.pizon.org/files/index.html Once installed (leave program closed) download http://www.cplus.org/rmw/download/rmwupdate.zip Extract the following files to your Radio Mobile Deluxe Folder (overwrite): - rmpatheng.exe - rmUpdateeng.exe - rmweng.exe - rmweng.hlp Run rmUpdateeng.exe This gets you to the latest version 10.0.0.8 with all the packages/etc installed.

Anyone have a good step by step to get the map in the thing?? I totally believe the 4 hour thing. My issue is, every hour...

Once you do that it will gel.

It looks simple, heck yes! Everyone says it's easy but I'll be darned if I can't get anything out of it. Now you also have to understand, when I try to work with it I have 3 kids, a cat and the wife all wanting something. Time was not well spent when I've tried it. -----Original Message----- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of David E.

Radio Mobile is probably the best free tool you're gonna get, and once set up, works pretty well. (The trickiest part probably is getting the terrain data you need, but you only have to do that once.)
