RECEIVER CONTROL
AutoDFTest offers some limited receiver control for ICOM and AOR receivers. The dialog below
shows the receiver screen
In addition to the receiver control the GPS and compass data are displayed. If you do not see the
GPS data it could be that the GPS has not converged on the satellites. Look at the received screen
and look at the contents of the GPGGA and GPVTG messages. If these messages appear with
commas where the data should be then the GPS has not converged. If these messages are absent
then check the GPS power and data connections. If you have a compass connected you should see a
HCHDM message.
