PocketDAPNET v0.6.9

Verified RF-calibration release.

Highlights

  • Clarifies the difference between RF center frequency, oscillator correction and POCSAG FSK deviation.
  • Keeps TX oscillator correction at a neutral 0.000000 MHz default.
  • TX diagnostics now show the programmed center and expected low/high FSK tones.
  • Documents a measurement-based calibration procedure using the midpoint of both tones.
  • Retains the v0.6.8 DAPNET slot-time budget check and detailed TX diagnostics.

Verified behavior

  • Manual POCSAG messages were decoded successfully at 1200 baud for multiple RIC ranges when the RF center was correctly calibrated.
  • DAPNET-originated queued messages were transmitted in assigned slots and decoded successfully by external POCSAG monitoring tools.

Important calibration note

The standard POCSAG shift of 4500 Hz means ±4.5 kHz around the center frequency. It must not be entered as a +0.0045 MHz oscillator correction.
