<font size="+1"><font face="Comic Sans MS">I just finished
configuring a TX orangerx open lrs (long range system) module.
I configured the RX too and they bind.<br>
<br>
I've had this project going for a while now. You need a usb to
ttl card to configure the TX module and RX board. The TX and RX
boards work on<br>
3.3 volts on their logic side. This is the same voltage of many
small computer boards like Arduino so there are cheap gizmos
available these days. I got a clone FTDI board for a couple of
bucks and it has a 5v/3.3 volt jumper on it. I got an "unsigned
driver" error from Windoze 7, which apparently come from the
cheapo boards using counterfeit FTDI chips. I found a work
around so I could proceed. The configuration software runs as
an app in Google Chrome. I updated the firmware on the TX
first. After that you get to choose options. The frequency,
number of hops and speed can be changed in the configuration. I
tried to do the same with the RX, but a message said I had to
configure it with the TX module. It did bind so I guess it is
somewhat configured. The software has a spectrum analyzer
feature which I will play with tonight. I think it allows you
to see your signal, though from the TX side or the RX side I
still haven't figured out. I should be able to get the old
lumber quad (LT X2) in the air with UHF equipment in a couple of
weeks. <br>
<br>
I sure wish it was legal to frequency hop on the 6 meter RC
band. <br>
