Title: Re: [Flexradio] FlexRadio Presentation

Cecil   I am taking this back into the reflector since others might be interested.   If you are going to do a demonstration you can (should) install the latest version of the code. Not the code for the SoftRoc40. The code is free. From the FlexRadio website. If you are not using a supported sound card, you should also install Asio4all version 1.8.   You can download the i/q files can be found on the \\flex-radio-friends\ website under downloads…. I think the folder is called IQ_Wavefiles   I would encourage others to upload wav files to this directory since this website has unlimited storage and unlimited bandwidth… Sorry about the lack of content but, I don’t have time to grow it as I would wish. It can be a storage area for users wishing to store a good quantity of data/information. It is ‘free form’ so create a folder under your call. It is a ‘trust relationship’ since you can probably wipe it out also! (smile)   I gave a presentation at our local radio club last month and have another to give to the Georgia Tech Radio club in October! Didn’t do that great with the first, but will try to ‘nail’ the second… There is just SO much excitement and stuff to demo!   The radio “without the hardware” is probably the slickest thing I have ever seen to demo what software can do! REALLY puts this radio –beyond all others—on the map.   I did it with a Dell Latitude C-600 at about .9 g processor…. It did not strain in the demo!   Eric – AA4SW         From: Bayona, Cecilio A.

But I have other PC's that are not as fast but seem to be doing well while playing back Wav files, I'm hoping that they will do OK with a real radio attached. The one I'm hoping to use is a very lean PC, a Pentium III 900 MHz with 640 Meg ram, it is running Win2K, it uses 30% to 40% of the CPU while playing back and while having several filters turned on. I will be getting a better sound card and that might help bring those figures down.   Thanks   Cecil Bayona   [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work    479-717-1237 Cell       479-409-6834     From: ecellison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2005 4:01 PM To: 'kd5nwa' Cc: Bayona, Cecilio A.

If I go to www.frf.net I get a Swedish Television producers site that doesn't like that password. I'm going to be building a SR-40 this weekend and it looks like 40 meters will be dead.   Could you provide a more complete link to the site?   Thanks   Ryk   The files are really BIG! I would suggest that you download them from the Flex-Radio-Friends website, and burn on a CD. Even the smallest will probably not E-mail well.   Go to the FRF.NET websited. Uploads there is a folder called WAV files or the like. There are also some on the FlexRadio site.   Username is Friends Password Flex4U   (both case sensitive)   Eric     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ryk Houseman Sent: Wednesday, September 14, 2005 10:49 PM To: Gerald Youngblood; MailFlexRadio Subject: Re: [Flexradio] FlexRadio Presentation   To All,   I will be making a presentation this weekend on the SDR1000 and I would be interested in any really pertinent WAV files that you guys may have recorded.  Please send the WAV files to me direct at [EMAIL PROTECTED]   Thanks Ryk N6DQ Gerald Youngblood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I have uploaded a recent FlexRadio PowerPoint presentation to the FlexRadio Friends website if anyone would like to use parts of it for your local club.  It is located in the Upload section in the FlexRadio Presentations folder. 73, Gerald K5SDR _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz     -- Cecil KD5NWA <www.qrpradio.com> I fail to see why doing the same thing over and over and getting the same results every time is insanity: I've almost proved it isn't; only a few more tests now and I'm sure results will differ this time ...   -- No virus found in this incoming message.
