[Flexradio] 600 meter transverter?

2010-05-18 Thread vtnn43e


Since we may get 600 meters someday in the future is there any 

chance that Flex might make a transverter for that band? Or even a Lowfer 
transverter? 



  

Thanks

[Flexradio] Flex 5k got very hot

2010-05-18 Thread Ed Stallman
Today talking on 6m SSB and using 100 watts my Flex 5k got hot to the 
point were the VOX stopped working, wondering what was wrong I used 
the PTT to find the radio was only doing 35 watts at this time . I 
will say I was very long winded in the QSO but not so much as if I 
were working the June VHF contest. I checked the fan and my SWR is 
1:2 to 1  I could not remember what ALT + key to use to give me 
the radio Voltage and Temp , would someone please en form me . After 
today I'm wishing the Temp was on the PSDR consol full time. Is their 
something I need to check to keep the radio for getting so hot? Is an 
extra fan needed when using 6m? and yes The vent holes are correct 
per the pictures on the Flex home page


Thanks Ed

Ed,

Ctrl-Shift-I brings up the Temperature/Voltage display.

I also wish that there was an option to have that window displayed at all
times.  Sounds like a candidate for the Feature Request system.

It's on the feature request list more than once - #1730 (two years 
ago) and #2476 (last year).  Requesting even trivial features 
doesn't do a whole lot of good. . .

Re: [Flexradio] Flex 5k got very hot

2010-05-18 Thread Ray J

the radio should never get hot running ssb..
a bit more on cw, and very likely more on the high duty cycle modes.. 
like jt65 or other constant key down full power modes..

the radio has been tested for hours straight at max power output.

The average output power on ssb should only around 30 watts.. the radio 
should not even be breaking a sweat..

Re: [Flexradio] 600 meter transverter?

2010-05-18 Thread Gerald Youngblood
Zack,

There are some customers using the FLEX-5000 on 600m with experimental
licenses now.  It requires the use of the transverter port with external low
pass filtering and PA for 600m.  The internal PA will not work on 600m but
the receiver and exciter will.

Re: [Flexradio] Flex 5k got very hot

2010-05-18 Thread Tim Ellison
Are you sure it was a thermal shut down?  I don't think you can get it that 
warm on SSB unless the fan is not spinning at all, in which case you would not 
feel the heated air egressing out the back of the radio.

[Flexradio] 5000 with Microwave Modul Transverter

2010-05-18 Thread NJSCAN
I'm wondering if anyone has any experience using a Microwave Modules MMT144/28 
2M transverter with a 5000 ? I've been using it on a Kenwood TS-930 and as I 
recall there was little to no adjustments required.

I assume that Flex has to have some transverter output level adjustment? Any 
guidance would be appreciated.

What level do you need?  It is adjustable up to +5 dBm and set with the Power 
level in the transverter form.  The transverter form is covered in the

[Flexradio] Flex3000 and VAC flashing waterfall

2010-05-18 Thread Kent Hufford
OK, I'm back from Dayton, and went to all the FLEX demos.

I've had my 3000 for about 9 months, running fine on a Dell laptop with WIN7
32bit. 

Today, I installed VAC 4.10.0.2536 according to the instructions on the Flex
web site. It seemed to install correctly, shows what it should when I fire
up PSDR 1.18.5.

I then tried to setup DM780 according to the instructions. Seemed to take
all the settings. 

However, on the WATERFALL in DM780, I get about 2 sec. of waterfall, then
blank space for about 5 sec. So I tried PK31 Deluxe 4.0, set it up. And I
get the same 2 sec of waterfall, then blank space. I tried adjusting the rec
vol and inputs, did not change the amount of waterfall or blank space.

Got to be something simple...?

thanks in advance

To sign up for the FlexEdge Reflector, use the FlexEdge Reflector User

Unfortunately you are in the limbo zone between alpha and beta software,

Re: [Flexradio] Flex 5k got very hot

2010-05-18 Thread Ed Stallman
Hello Tim and all , I did put my hand on the top and side plus put my 
hand next to the vent in the back , all felt hot . at the time this 
happened my Internet was out so didn't know how to bring up the 
Voltage / Temp window to see what the Temp was! I was on SSB at the 
time and like I said the VOX quiet working , then using PTT and a CW 
tone the radio was doing 35 watts . I then tested in CW every few 
minutes and watched the power slowly go back to 100 watts . after ten 
minutes VOX and Power was fine .


I've had  the Volt / Temp window up now for the past 4 hours , with 
out me Xmitting the Temp is steady at 32C


Hear is how I have the Mic set , let me know if you think it's set to high..
Using the Heil pr781 , I have DX set to 4, Under TX meter I set to 
Mic and adjust the Mic gain close to zero . I do use the EQ to give 
me some DX high's ... after adjusting the EQ I go back and re adjust 
the Mic gain to zero again. under setup / TX I'm set at 300 and 
3000 With these settings and Drive set to 100 watts , when I 
speak in the Mic the power meter go to 70 to 80 watts ... seams high to me?


I've used the radio like this the past 2.5 year, today is the first 
time I was this long winded , still not using it as much as if I were 
contesting.. I'm just saying


Anyway , let me know about the Mic Gain?
Also can someone tell me if the VOX will quiet working if the radio 
go's into thermal shut down?

How can I find out if the radio is set at the correct Bias ?


Thanks Ed

1:2 to 1  I could not remember what ALT + key to use to give me 
the radio Voltage and Temp , would someone please en form me . After 
today I'm wishing the Temp was on the PSDR consol full time. Is 
their something I need to check to keep the radio for getting so 
hot? Is an extra fan needed when using 6m? and yes The vent holes 
are correct per the pictures on the Flex home page


Thanks Ed

Re: [Flexradio] Flex3000 and VAC flashing waterfall

2010-05-18 Thread Kent Hufford
Thanks, I uninstalled 4.10 and installed 4.9. Still did not correct the
problem.

But, I reversed the Virtual Cable 1 and 2 in PSK31 Deluxe in the input and
output and it is receiving correctly.

Thanks,
Kent

VAC version 4.09 will solve your problem.  Your symptoms are indicative of
the buggy 4.10 version.

Install 4.09 instead of 4.10 and see if it still does the flashing.

 OK, I'm back from Dayton, and went to all the FLEX demos.

 I've had my 3000 for about 9 months, running fine on a Dell laptop 
 with
 WIN7
 32bit.

 Today, I installed VAC 4.10.0.2536 according to the instructions on 
 the Flex web site. It seemed to install correctly, shows what it 
 should when I fire up PSDR 1.18.5.

 I then tried to setup DM780 according to the instructions. Seemed to 
 take all the settings.

 However, on the WATERFALL in DM780, I get about 2 sec. of waterfall, 
 then blank space for about 5 sec. So I tried PK31 Deluxe 4.0, set it 
 up. And I get the same 2 sec of waterfall, then blank space. I tried 
 adjusting the rec vol and inputs, did not change the amount of 
 waterfall or blank space.

 Got to be something simple...?

 thanks in advance

Don,

1st, since you are using the PB-PAL code, this should have been posted to
the FlexEdge reflector.

Go to Setup--DSP--Keyer  see if the secondary connection is set to CAT.
If it is, set it to None.  This is a known bug.
