Got these personalities and sets? NIFOG, VHF Marine, etc?

[ElroyJetson]

Does anybody have the full NIFOG personality for Harris XL radios, that they can share with me?

I'm also looking for the full VHF marine channels channel set.

Yes, I could build it but if someone has it, it'd save me hours of labor.

I had ours shipped with NIFOG already installed, and I'm 99.9% sure I saved that default load. I won't be in the shop until middle of next week, but if you send me a PM around then, I'll grab it and dropbox it to you.

I do recall that the stock NIFOG load had a few errors, mainly wrong PL's. Not sure if I fixed it before saving it.

I ~might~ have the marine VHF load….

I have a VHF marine set in RPM14, are you able to use that? I don’t have any experience with RPM 2 or the XL line.

 

[ElroyJetson]

Yes, that set will work. It can be transferred into RPM2. I'll PM you.

I have all the VHF marine channels in my XG-100M along with tons of ham freqs.
Copied my personality from an M7100.
I would have to build up the NIFOG and add another system.

A few requested sets were sent to me. Now the question is, what's the proper procedure for installing them in my directories, where they belong, in a manner that allows RPM2 to actually see them?

I installed them in my correct global sets directory. But RPM2 doesn't see them.

In RPM14, you create a conventional set with the exact same name, then right click it and "Use Global Set". Not sure if it's the same in RPM2

 

[ElroyJetson]

Found the answer. In the case of a conventional set, the file extension is .cv5 for a set, change it manually to .cvx to make it a global set.
Presumably similar rules apply to other types of sets. It appears that the extension ends in X for global sets.

The same thing can be accomplished when in the conventional set editor, just go to the name of the set, right click and select "make set global."

And if someone would like to share conventional sets for NIFOG and Marine, I sure would be happy...

Except that I could not find a way to make RPM2 recognize the set that I had received via email and copy saved it to the appropriate directory, until I changed the extension.

Interesting, I'd have to try and replicate that; I've never had a problem copying sets into RPM2.
