Thanks Ian, yeah I did mean out over the radio port, I understand that
spider doesn't support the radios directly but having used various programs
that use AGW all have had the ability to send out their own beacons so I
assumed Spider would be able to do this also which is why I asked the
question, it appears this is not the case with spider, I don't know of a way
to get AGW to send out the beacon?

Cheers,
Dave.
