Cambridge GPS-NAV Aero Explorer error on log download

For badges and US state records you should just be able to use conv-cam.exe in the .CAI file you download with SeeYou. conv-cam.exe is available on the IGC website at: https://www.fai.org/igc-documents (Look for the Cambridge folder under Flight Recorders-FR Manaufacturer's exe files) Which will only run on 32-bit systems! For the OLC, ClearNav also has instructions for using Model 10/20/25 on the OLC he https://clearnav.net/main/cn-CAI-OLC.html Don't know if this will work for GPS-NAV though. Lynn Alley 2KA |

Lynn Alley 2KA I believe the models 10, 20, and 25 were all called GPS-NAV devices. Perhaps the O.P. can update us on his progress. Are the dates good in the (phoney) IGC file? Is the seal on the GPS-NAV good? |

This can easily be resolved by running vDos. See this link:
https://www.vdos.info/download.html Of course all this is a little bit of bother, but to those on a tight budget it is an alternative to buying a new logger. L. |

For those on a real tight budget, I've got a few cases of Verichrome Pan in the basement somewhere, and my club has a couple Replogle's we'd make somebody a real deal on. We'll throw in a can of hair spray for free. Really, the IGC enable for PF is $89. The PF of course is pricey, but what's a life worth? Keeping Win8.1 on a pc so you can run ancient software has its own costs in time and frustration. The really nice thing about beating your head against the wall for 25 years is that feeling you get when you stop. -Dave |

I would think a 32 bit installation of Win7 would be a good overall choice when running antique software. Better yet, get rid of the antique software. |

I've discovered that Win 8.1 Pro, 64-bit but a PITA without Start8, is very good with old stuff. Win 7 was good, 8.1 better, 10 not so good. OSX with Wine works very well for many programs. Tough to get rid of antiques (an example outside of soaring: Sidekick 99) if nobody has produced a replacement. Jim |

You mean you guys don't have a Windows 98 Laptop with a real, working serial port and 3.5 inch floppy drive to hook to your Cambridge 10/20/25? WTH is wrong with you? :-) And then a USB 3.5 floppy drive to hook to an XP machine to do the conversion for OLC, then on to Vista or Windows 10 with that USB floppy drive to upload.
Sheesh. Next thing you know, I will be hearing of "wet cell battery replacements". Hee hee. Steve Leonard Yep, I have a bunch of Model 20s and 25s. And L-Navs and S-Navs, too. |
