Good one! But more seriously, all of these boards/products

It seems highly unlikely that once they replaced the main

I can't swear that the cable is not the fault, but before the first

I ordered a Flarm very early, before they were even released.

Blake, Is the Flarm set to 19200 baud and also the Oudie? I
might call Paul Remde at Cumulus or Richard at Craggy for
other ideas. D
