Eric - Yes, in my humble opinion CW is the one weak spot for the SDR that I would sure like to see resolved.  A USB connection sounds like a GREAT possibility!   John Denson ----- Original Message ----- From: ecellison To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; 'FlexRadio Reflector' Sent: Thursday, December 01, 2005 3:56 AM Subject: Re: [Flexradio] Another Xylo fiddler Chris   Another thought occurred to me on ‘simple’ things to do would be to program a keyer on the chip. Just needs two debounced inputs and one output for testing. Eventually the keying ‘stream’ would be sent back through the USB control fifo conntection.  I can still remember the old DTL and TTL keyers I built early on. CW remains one of those ‘shaky’ areas in the radio, and there is almost nothing we can’t do with high speed USB.   Eric     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Christopher T.

My Xylo arrived today - they're just down the road - but there's no time for me to get the Wolfson chips. I leave for the South Pole on Monday and the Xylo is going with me for playing with in my "copious spare time". Right. Anyway, if I manage not to blow it out with the horrendous static down there, I'll see if I can get some simple VHDL going. If anyone has suggestions of simple things to try out, I'd appreciate it. I'm pretty good with computing languages, but haven't done any of this mushy form of hardware before. Thanks.         Chris     AE6VK _______________________________________________ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz
