The folder 'Radio Mobile' is placed in the root of the 'C' drive, and holds 15 primaryfolders to contain the data required (and downloaded) by Radio Mobile. Their functionsare:-

generated antenna files are to be placed. An Omni pattern is alsoavailable from the program.

Networks This is a parent folder which holds three named Network folders:-

BaseNetwork

The network generated by my installer to enable all theinternal data folder links to be generated, and set up aworking network which is easy to modify and move.

Network 2 An empty folder which can be renamed to hold the firstnew replacement network.

Network 3 An empty folder which can be renamed to hold thesecond new replacement network.

ObjectsA folder where common - not network specific - objects can be

stored.

OpenStreet Map

Location where OpenStreetMap data is stored.

STRM

This folder initially contains the single SRTM tile as required by my

Base Network. It is the location where additional SRTM3 (3-arcsecond)elevation data is stored.

STRM-1 An empty folder for SRTM1 (1-arcsecond) data where available.

Terraserver An empty folder in which to hold Terraserver data.

In addition to the folders, there are extra files contained in the root of the Radio

Mobile folder which are common to all networks generated and required for theprogram operation.

The majority of the files in the root of the Radio Mobile folder are available from

Rogers' Download page Here, and are contained in:

Step 3: rmwcore.zip

Step 5: rww10nn***.zip the selected version language files.

The major additions generated by my installer are:

1) RMW.ini

This file contains all the 'Start up' settings for my Base Network,and also generates all the internal folder links to make thenetwork function immediately it is opened. The program uses thesingle SRTM tile stored in the SRTM folder plus the saved mapsand pictures in the Base Network folder. All links to the internetdownloads folders are set and will appear if enabled. By usingthis file there are no changes made to the registry.

2) wmap.jpg

This 'Alternate World Map' shows the British Isles, but it can bereplaced by your own map picture as required, generated inRadio Mobile and given the same name. This could be a whole

Country as shown by the UK, or perhaps a County if this is yourusual area of operation.

3) Wmap.dat The .dat file is the one generated by Radio Mobile when a

picture is saved - this needs to be the file generated with thepicture above and then saved with this name.

4) Uninstal.exe

A file generated by my installer to remove all the installed filesif required and linked from the program entry in the Start Menu.The uninstaller only removes the initial installed files, if anyadditional data has been downloaded this and its folder will have

to be removed manually.

If it is required to manually install the program from Rogers' Downloads page, a

folder structure has to be generated. I have placed all my Geodata in the Radio Mobiledirectory rather than a separate Geodata one to keep all the data in one location, andnot be spread across the drive.

I have also produced a 'Networks' folder which contains separate named folders for

each network generated. The advantage of this is that a) all the files pertaining to aparticular network are contained in a separate folder, and following on from this, b)you can use the same file name structure for each network without any problems ofname conflicts.
