Hi guys,
I'm brand-new to this.
I bought the openspot2, set it up, connected it, connected my radio (FT1D).
Everything is working, but when I connect to a server (YSF or FCS) all the reflectors are empty. Their names are there, there are whole lists of names, but there is no one around. I am always the only person there.
What do you think that is?
BTW, I did connect to a test room. It worked and it played my own audio back to me.
Thanks!

Check out xreflector.net. There is a list on the left of active reflectors for fcs.
Then, go to where the traffic is.

Thanks!
It turns out, there was simply no traffic.
Just when I wanted to give up, some guy piped up on America Link.
What confused me is that my transceiver (Yaesu FT1D) keeps showing me "1 operator connected" no matter which connector I'm on. So, I figured I was the only one around.
Generally, I didn't expect such low traffic on C4FM.
America Link is an exception. Otherwise, it's pretty dead.

If you haven't already, check out Alabama-Link and US-TGIF. Usually a lot of traffic there. And of course America-Link, but you already mentioned that.

The OS2 sends the currently active profile number as the connected clients count to your radio in the Wires-X button status. The currently active profile number is 1, that's why you see 1 there.
