Re: Gina - Sad news that may shock some of you

Hi Ray, I believe she has a niece somewhere, but other than that she lived alone. Apparently the police are tracking down her family in order to inform them. It is sad. I had many a conversation with Gina on electronics and things astronomy related. She even built her own observatory around the same...

Gina - Sad news that may shock some of you

Hi, It was reported on one of the other forums that Gina frequented (Stargazers Lounge) that Gina Davies had sadly passed away. The alarm was raised after concerns that something was amiss as Gina stop posting on the forum mid topic, and didn't respond to PMs in the usual timely fashion, which was w...

Re: Photos of the insides of Fine Offset sensors.

Just an update to my base station issue. I received a PM from a fellow member offering to sell me a spare base station he had that was surplus to his requirements. The deal was struck and I received it a few days later. Sadly it didn't want to pair with the transmitter unit, even though it was the s...

Don't know, it's just been a day or so since I listed it.

Both are keenly priced... Hopefully someone out there needs replacements

Re: Maplin N96GY base station now faulty - Suggestions Please

Thanks for the reply, and it does indeed sound like the same symptoms I experienced with the unit that is now residing at the local recycling centre. I've sourced a replacement base unit, for £69 inc postage (which was what I paid for the complete kit from Maplins), but I currently have more pressin...

Re: Photos of the insides of Fine Offset sensors.

I have posed the question to the supplier to confirm that the two units will communicate with each other, but have not received a reply.... Yeah, I have a basic interest in PICs... but haven't really used them in anger for some years as PicBASIC Pro was very slow to keep up with things... I was push...

Re: Photos of the insides of Fine Offset sensors.

Hi Alan, thanks for the reply, I did think that the project wasn't as open sourced as it first appeared, especially when kits and ready made boards were on offer. Basically I was looking for any alternative to buying a replacement base station, seeing the cost of which is more than the total cost of...

Re: Photos of the insides of Fine Offset sensors.

Thanks for the link David. Seems I visited that site in 2017 as I had an open account - but had never posted... still having issues accessing the code, which hopefully they will sort out. Not sure I would opt for a built unit, it's more expensive than a replacement Wattson base station... and I only...
