Benefits of MG Box V2
Ray, Rolando -
What features of the MG Box V2 does APCC or other A-P hardware/software take advantage of? Such as GPS or barometric information

If Venus coordinates are correct, then something else is

Re: Dumb(?) question re start-up of my AP900GTO CP4
bring up an object but before sending it there press the < button to see the object data. If it looks wrong, it could be that your keypad battery has died and you will need to re-load the database

Make sure that the driver has the correct Longitude; I seem to recall having a similar problem when moving my AP900 to a new location and the longitude kept reverting to East instead

Dumb(?) question re start-up of my AP900GTO CP4
All - my AP900GTO CP4 has been idle for over a year and with power OFF. I am putting it back into operation and am having a weird time getting the scope to find targets (like at all).

Re: Mach1 Unable to Find Home Position Suddenly
