Hi Tim,
I'm not sure if I understand the question. As far as I know, the 5000A XVTR
interface IF is always from 28 to 32 MHz (4 MHz bandwidth). If I program
one of the XVTR (VHF+) buttons from 432.0 to 436.0 MHz, I do not get OOB
warnings for the entire 4 MHz range, but if I program 222 to 225 MHz, then I
get the OOB warnings I listed earlier. I assume that the firmware must have
a bug and is incorrectly reporting OOB for 222.250 to 223.400 MHz. I think
it should be reporting "1.25M Repeater Inputs" instead of OOB.

What is the frequency of the IF? Is it OOB?

Subject: [Flexradio] 222 MHz transverter interface bugs?
I'm getting ready to try out a 222MHz transverter with my Flex 5000A
(PowerSDR 1.18.3, Firmware 1.3.0.8, Firewire Driver 3.5.0.7171). I've
programmed the XVTR settings for a begin frequency of 222.0 and an end
frequency of 225.0 (LO = 194 MHz). I'm getting Out Of Band whenever I go to
frequencies in the range 222.250 to 223.400 MHz and also from 224.980 and
up. Unless something has changed recently, the US allocation for this band
is from 222.0 to 225.0 continuous. The local 222 repeater that I sometimes
listen to is 223.980 out and 223.380 in (out of band according to PowerSDR).
It appears that it will still transmit, even with the Out of Band warning,
but I need to hook up the spectrum analyzer to be sure. So this is probably
just a cosmetic bug.
Also, if I stop and close PowerSDR while I have the 222 MHz band selected,
and then restart it, the Band Buttons come up in HF mode, even though the
frequency is correct.
Has anyone else noticed either of these behaviors, or am I doing something
wrong?
