Thanks for the ideas. *Switch position was not the culprit. *I am
working with Jeff at R-Track Technology to get the drivers for the USB

found a computer with a RS-232 port and was able to download the
flights. *So, I am good to go for now.
CH - I have also run into the memory wrapping feature that causes a
security fail. *For me, it happend on a single flight. *its possible
that it could happen after only 7 flights, if they were long flights
and the sample rate was high (mine is set at 4 sec.) *I do not know of
a way to make the file secure and get it to pass the checks. *if you
don't wipe the memory of the 302, you run the risk of losing a flight
(OLC, Badge, and possibly contest - though I'd hope they would still
score you, since it is a known problem and you can still read the
flight file.)
Its not mine its CA1's (not CAI) and his flights that he is downloading
into his PDA from the 302 are showing up greyed out on OLC but scored. He
was told that it was because the flights are wrapping over the old ones.
It is not just a single flight it is every flight. *I was suprised that my
older version of SeeYou on my laptop connected to the 302 but would hang up
upon trying to download. IIRC I could not delete the files from a cambridge
10-20-25 unless I downloaded them first then the option to delete was
there. This is my first experience with the 302!

If every flight log shows security fail the next step should be to
check the security indication on the instrument itself. See my post to
ASA site.
