Title: Transponder Cable
Post by: AndyM on May 22, 2019, 07:54:45 pm

Any idea how I get around this little problem? Not enough room to plug my transponder cable into the USB slot on the Rosetta?

Hi Andy,

What cable are you using? I take it you mean because of the width of the GPS dongle on the top row?

There should still be room to plug a standard USB cable such as the recommended FTDI one into the spare slot next to the 1090 SDR Dongle on the bottom row. Alternatively you could put the GPS on a short USB extender - or use a GPS Mouse.

Hope this helps.

Regards

Peter
