View Full Version : ASA On Top bug?

I have been having a problem with ASA On Top that has been driving me
nuts. A short drive, admittedly... Anyway, the compass dial around the
ADF doesn't adjust. That is, you can turn the knob, and the dial will
start to move, but it soon snaps back to its original location. Even
this would be much easier to live with if its preferred location had
north exactly at the top, but it seems to want to be a few degrees west
of north.

Anybody know how to deal with this?

Works fine on mine. Which version are you using? I'm running 8.0

I would have to check to be sure, but I think it's 6.0.

I purchased 6, installed it, tried it one time and uninstalled it.
I hope (and assume) the newer versions are better.

It's evidentally nice if you can get it to work. I haven't been able to get
either it or IP Trainer to work reliably. ASA software in general sucks.
Blew hundreds of dollars. Their "PREPWARE" is even more laughable
(but at least it runs).

I've never had a problem with it not working. My first version was the
pre version 1 beta.

>Sorry. Don't know anything specific. There shouldn't be a problem. Have you seen if there are any updates to that version that may solve the problem? My last version before 8.0 was 5.5 and it ran just fine on 98, 98SE, and even ME.
