Welcome to the club, Hunter. If you are using PowerSDR v1.18.x, I am afraid that the default settings for ANF are about as good as it is going to get. Both NR and ANF have been significantly improved in the next major version of PowerSDR v2.0.0 due to be out relatively soon (when the FLEX-1500 is released into the wild).
The v1.18.x defaults for ANF are taps:65/delay:50/gain:30 On the "spur" issue, toggle the Spur Reduction (SR button) on and off. If the spur moves, it is a DDS spur and all you can do is move it out of the RX passband. If it doesn't move, then it's source is external of the radio. What is the signal strength of it? -Tim -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Hunter Ellington Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2010 3:13 PM To: flexradio@flex-radio.biz Subject: [Flexradio] A Most Excellent Radio Well, I finally was able to devote a weekend to troubleshooting my HP Pavilion computer in conjunction to my 5000A. I followed all of the trouble shooting hints. I went to Device Manager (in Win 7), updated everything that had a driver and disabled a few non-essential functions. I don't know exactly what I did, but the radio is now fully functional. Way cool! Now to dig into the beast. Can anyone share with me their notch filter settings? I have goofed around with the settings, but have not stumbled on to a tastefully fast and effective setting. Also, I noticed that I have a birdie right on 14.300MHZ which is very low level, but annoying none the less. I don't hear it on the K3, and have gone about turning other rigs and peripheral accessories on and off to see if it goes away. So far, no joy. I love the click and pounce tuning feature. I do, however need a better mouse with a bigger finger wheel. 73 WB9NJB R. Hunter Ellington 303-454-0543/720-560-8139 P.O.
