I got some audio feedback data while in a QSO this weekend. This was relatively local stuff on 75m in the evening but what I heard seems to be in agreement with the described functionality of the new DX button.
Basically, when the DX button is engaged, there is considerable punch, providing a nice boost for working the DX; for casual rag chewing as was the case in this QSO, the additional boost was not needed and the audio sounded more natural without DX engaged, which is as I would have expected. All in all, sounds like a nice new feature which I hope to try out soon under DX conditions. 73, Pete N3EVL > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > radio.biz] On Behalf Of Edwin Marzan > Sent: Monday, January 07, 2008 3:08 PM > To: FireBrick; FlexRadio List > Subject: Re: [Flexradio] audio punch (SVN 1879) - K6JCA Console > > > I wrote here a few months ago concerning the fact that I was unable to > drive the audio hard enough on my SDR1000 to see the meters kick up on > my power supply and watt meter.
