Hi,

I need to align the audio switching network of my ham radio repeater  
db0fue,  
and it would be nice to have some GRC GUI element that allows me to  
switch  
between two predefined RF frequencies. Never worked with this GUI stuff,  
and  
I guess finding it out myself probably would take too long 🙂 Just need  
to  
set a 1000 Hz NFM test tone generator that can be switched between  
145.0375  
and 431.025 MHz with touching a button on my tablet PC screen…if one  
could  
drop the name of the GUI element that could do the job, the rest should  
be  
simple enough 🙂 I am using latest gnuradio 3.7.something (built from  
source) and Kubuntu 13.10.

Sorry for the dumb looking question, but I would love to get this up and  
running during lunch break, and drive to the repeater with a rucksack  
full  
of RF gear this evening and get the deviation issue fixed, before people  
start complaining.

Ralph.

The WX GUI Check Box should work for you. It can toggle  
between two values. Let me know if you need an example.

Works great, without problems, as expected 🙂

OK, this sounds reasonable - when it is able to assign values to buttons  
and  
put them into a placeholder on button press, then it is exactly what I  
need,  
and I should be able to use this without an example. I was hoping that  
there  
is such a simple solution 🙂

Thank you!

Ralph.
