Lloyd,<br>
<br>
WIDE2-2 is the recommended path in my area.<br>
<br>
Bob,<br>
<br>
I'll change my Beacon setting to AUTO and let you know if you've
put your finger on the problem.<br>
<br>
Thanks to you both for your replies.<br>

Bob,<br>
<br>
I changed my Beacon setting to AUTO and here's what happened:<br>
The D-710 screen showed "my position" twice, after I had the rig<br>
turned on for a little over two minutes.<br>
I went into my home and I brought up "findu". It reported "No <br>
position report for W5LON has been heard in the last 10 days".<br>
<br>
This response was puzzeling as I had not seen "my position"<br>
shown on the screen of my D-710 prior to changing changing my <br>
Beacon setting to AUTO.<br>
