Cannot set up home location on Map View in client

[Jovin]

Hi All
I've been trying to set my home location in the client but it seesm to refuse to save it. I go into config mode click on detect my location automatically then when the map comes up, drag the pin to my location. I then click save changes and when prompted click on the link to Map View which puts me in the Pacific Ocean approx 1000km SE of Hawaii!

Any ideas how to resolve this?

The home location can be confirmed in the client on the settings tab.

The map doesn't zoom to that location but will zoom to fit all the aircraft you currently are seeing. Are you not decoding any aircraft?

Hi and thanks for the reply.
Not currently decoding any aircraft but that was to be the next question and I can see from your reply that this is the reason why the map is going to the Pacific. My receiver is a Plane Gadget radar which isnt listed so
dont know which receiver to select or what settings to enter into the Data Format sections.

Any help appreciated

That answers that then

Ah the PGR! I have one here actually as we used to use them. They aren't the best of receivers and the format coming out was a little custom so we decided to not build support for it.

You are the first to ask too!

Ok so would I better off (with limited budget) with a USB TV type receiver?

They aren't great either but if on a budget then yes.
