[Elecraft] DSP red light coming on at max load

2009-10-14 Thread Wayne Burdick
It's official: we're running out of DSP cycles not just during NR on/ 
off but also under worst-case load.

I get a continuous DSP red LED and distorted audio (with a buzz) under  
the following conditions:

   CW
   CWT on
   NR on, set to F1-x
   DSP NB on, any setting
   FIR IF filter (WIDTH  500 Hz)

Turning off any of these kills the red LED.

I also get a red LED when turning NR on/off even if the DSP is not  
turned on.

So I need a workaround until you get back. One thing I could do is  
defeat the CW decoder (and CWT) if WIDTH is set  500 Hz. Other ideas?

tnx
W

This was not intended for the reflector. Sorry for the bandwidth!

Lyle and I will come up with a fix and get it into the next beta  
firmware release. Fortunately he's coming back from vacation soon :)
