The problem is resolved.  You should be able to update to the latest
revision (722) and this should get everyone back on track.

Thanks Eric,

It worked, and all the files updated that time.

Re: [Flexradio] Scanning ranges / memories?

2006-10-28 Thread dave . g0dja

Why would this be? My TS-850 has ten of those and my FT-100D has 20 built
in. That would seem to be a basic function in any HF rig. 


One way round it, since the FCC rules don't apply outside the USA, is to
use something like Ham Radio Deluxe (HRD) and interface it to PowerSDR. 
Then you get the scanning functions that Simon has incorporated into HRD.

You also get more goodies, like a logbook system including QRZ lookup and
the ability to import details from QRZ.com, satellite operation, rotator
control, to name just a few and a range of other programs like PSK31 Deluxe
and Mapper/links to Google Earth and an online DX Cluster and a way to remotely
control the SDR1000 without needing to use programs like VPN to control the
whole PC and can just control the SDR1000.

However, if you remotely control the SDR1000 by just using the HRD remote
server system, you don't see the panadaptor and some controls need to be
implemented between HRD and PowerSDR, but Simon (who is the author of HRD)
has an SDR1000 of his own, so I'm sure the extra controls will get incorporated
as soon as he gets time to look at this.

Re: [Flexradio] Scanning ranges / memories?

2006-10-28 Thread Ray Andrews
Jon,

There is no regulation against scanning amateur frequencies.  It is a hardware 
regulations issue.  

My understanding of the issue is as follows:  The SDR-1000 is marketed as an 
amateur radio transceiver, which does not require certification by the FCC.  
With the scanning code present in the version of the code supplied by 
Flex-Radio, the SDR-1000 falls under the definition of a scanning receiver 
which DOES require certification.  Certification would add a tremendous cost 
burden to Flex-Radio, not to mention of all of the ramifications of having to 
deal with the Federal bureauracy at an additional level.   Also, scanning 
receivers must not be readily modifiable to scan certain prohibited frequencies 
(cell phones).  Therefore, scanning would mean that we (the users) would not be 
able to modify the software (no more open source code).

Re: [Flexradio] Scanning ranges / memories?

2006-10-28 Thread Jim, W4ATK
The Flex-Radio SDR-1000 understands Kenwood CAT commands. If you want
scanning, more memories, you can very easily build something in VB to do
that. I had a program on the K2 that did just that called K2COMM. If you
want to look at the command set, there is a great reference on the Elecraft
web site. I must confess, scanning seems to me to be a bit of an overkill
when considered in the light of the panoramic display. The very reason I
built the scan function for the K2 was to drive a panoramic display. But
then everyone to his own thing, I try not to trash another persons rice
bowl.

Hi John,

work well, the sliders are very useful.

In my opinion, there is the to do list:

- new buttons design in recorder style for REC/PLAY and add REW/FF buttons.
- auto tuning at PLAY, reading the frequencymode directly from the filename.
- restore the last frequency tuned at the STOP

Thank you !

John,

I sent you a rambling e-mail last night about one click audio setup
modes and using FLAC compression.  I hope it wasn't too obtuse.

After thinking about it, there are really only 4 modes (all of the
possible combinations of RX and TX audio processing settings), so using
those modes and providing a description of what each would do would
probably more appropriate.

Comments:
I like the active play list where your recorded files show up after
recording. - Nice.



Other enhancements:

Include the mode recorded in the file name

A Wave specific Help file access from the wave screen.

A Vu meter bar graph for RX and TX audio levels next to the gain sliders

[Flexradio] High SWR with no RF

2006-10-28 Thread K6JEK
I'm getting High SWR on transmit even with very low power into a dummy 
load with RF chokes all over the place in a set-up that used to work 
which I thought hasn't changed.The posts on this reflector seem to 
be about RF into the cables but I don't think that's what I have.  I'm 
mystified.

Here's the story.   I sent my old but working-fine SDR back to Flex for 
updates.   I completely disassembled the operating set up when it was 
gone.   When it came back, I hooked everything back up the way it was, 
at least I think I did   It's fine on receive.   On transmit it shuts 
off with High SWR.   It will do that even in Tune running 1W into a 
dummy load.   It does put out power before it decides the SWR is too 
high, up to 100W in tune.   It was modulating in LSB although I don't 
know that it was doing that correctly. The SWR is 1:1 according to the 
Bird I have in line.

I figure a 99% chance I've done something wrong  or forgot to do 
something and a 1% chance the guys at Flex did something wrong.

Here's the set-up.   Compaq lap top connected with parallel port, not 
USB cable.   Pre-Sonus Firebox without the firmware update sampling at 
48 kHz.  Audio cables are Hosa with the little low pass filter in the 
to line out line.   RF chokes on every cable except the RF out coax 
and the parallel cable.   Chokes on both ends of the FireWire cable.  
No ATU. Running 1.6.3 beta.  Cables have been wiggled, removed, 
re-installed.

Any advice would be most appreciated.

[Flexradio] Audio Popping Problem Solved!

2006-10-28 Thread Jerry Sharp
Hi all, thanks to the clues and suggestions from those who responded I 
have my audio popping problem solved.

I found that by turning off the SDR display the popping disappeared. 
Then I realized that the popping occurred at the rate of the display 
refresh..turn up the refresh, the popping increased, turn down the 
refresh and the popping decreased. Ah..must be a video related problem!

Well, Windows indicated no conflicts between my video and audio cards. 
Each were on their own IRQ, 19 for the soundcard and 16 for the video.

So I started playing with my BIOS settings. After I turned off AGP
Fast Refresh the popping disappeared! Several reboots later all seems 
to be fine. Guess I don't need AGP Fast Refresh, I'm not into games.

Thanks all for your help and suggestions,
Jerry Sharp, KD0GS

Sorry but on most laptops the external connector is a copy of what is 
displayed on the laptop and that is all it can do. Check with your 
manufacturer to see if you have the ability to do dual desktops, if you 
do then their drivers will make their video card appear as two video cards.

Even with desktops there is no assurance that if the video card has two 
connectors that they can display two separate desktops so always check 
the fine print before buying a card.

For it to have two desktops the video hardware must have the capability 
and two DACs and the appropriate drivers so it can put out two different 
video outputs. I have for years setup my MAC with three monitors and 
it's a really handy thing to do when editing video.

The unit seem tso work ok when it comes to the RX. Iám Power SDR 1.6.3.

I have found that the PA in the unit seemt to pick up 840 mA allthough 
the unit is switched off.
The heatsink get of course pritty war,

When the unit is switched on the whole unit draws abt 930 mA.

Anyway. I have tested the mic to my Soundblaster USB-card MP3+ and that 
passes with ok.

But hen i hit MOX ( PTT there is now power out at all into the dummy.

Is there something wrong with the PA.

B.t.w activationg teh ATU does not do anything.

Re: [Flexradio] Dual displays

2006-10-28 Thread Terry Fox
Doing this depends on the laptop.  Older laptops don't have the capability,
but newer ones often do.  I use this sometimes with flight simulators and
broadcast video editing.

For example, a Dell C600 (1GHz laptop) will only clone the LCD display on
the external monitor.  However, with the Dell D610, you can make the two
displays separate.  You can then extend the windows desktop onto the second
display, and then open up programs/windows on each one.  You can even drag
the displays back and forth to change which one is on the left, right, top,
or bottom.

If you can do this, you should see an option to extend windows desktop onto
this monitor near the bottom of the Display Properties/settings tab.  Click
it to enable, after highlighting that display on the window area above (you
should see Display 1  display 2).  If you cannot enable this feature, then
you probably cannot do it with the internal video card.  A PCMCIA adaptor is
another way to accomplish this, albiet at a cost.

Hope that helps.

Spurs will stop the scan every time one is encountered.  This will
tend to get worse the higher in freq. you go.  If you only want to
scan certain preset frequencies, it will perform much better.

At this point, I would much rather see Flex fix the spur issues than
put ANY thought to scanning!  So with that, I wonder how close Eric
and Bob are getting toward resolving the spur issues?  Sure would like
to get an update on that.

Re: [Flexradio] Dual displays

2006-10-28 Thread Charles Greene
Tnx,

I found it. It's under display properties/settings/multiple 
monitors.  It has a setting, Display:  Multiple monitors on NVIDIA 
GeForce Go 6400, and the settings tab has icons 1 and 2 which 
represent the physical arrangement of the two monitors, which you can 
drag to change.  Unique to the NVIDIA chip set in this lap top I 
guess.  Only problem is the resolution is that of the lesser display, 
so I lose resolution as the LCD display is only 1024 X 768.  Actually 
ok.  Display on lap top will scroll up and down to give you a larger 
display.  I have SDR on the main (left) display and it is full screen 
on the 15 LCD.  On the right display which is the lap top, I have 
MixW and I put the 2nd through 4th new message boxes below the main 
screen.  I can scroll down to see them.

Tnx,  Chas

Sorry but on most laptops the external connector is a copy of what 
is displayed on the laptop and that is all it can do. Check with 
your manufacturer to see if you have the ability to do dual 
desktops, if you do then their drivers will make their video card 
appear as two video cards.

Even with desktops there is no assurance that if the video card has 
two connectors that they can display two separate desktops so always 
check the fine print before buying a card.

For it to have two desktops the video hardware must have the 
capability and two DACs and the appropriate drivers so it can put 
out two different video outputs. I have for years setup my MAC with 
three monitors and it's a really handy thing to do when editing video.

[Flexradio] FlexRadio and Apple Computers

2006-10-28 Thread Ove Rønning
Hi everyone. I’ve already made a similar posting in one of the 
FlexRadio forums, but perhaps this is a better place for it. I’m very 
fond of Apple computers, but to run PowerSDR one needs Windows. With 
the Intel based Macs of today Windows isn’t a problem using either the 
Bootcamp or the Parallels software. I’d like to use a MacBook laptop 
for my FlexRadio setup. Is anyone using an Apple computer together with 
the SDR-1000 and PowerSDR? If so, what kind of computer and are you 
using Bootcamp or Parallels?

I tried Parallels but although I was able to get a several Windows 
programs working it did not do well  with SDR software, in general it 
did not do well with anything that messed with the audio, it was a hit 
an miss thing, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.

That said when it did work with audio it did not work well, pauses in 
the audio mostly.

But since you can try it for free for 30 days I would recommend you 
download the demo and try it out for yourself.

Hi John,
Works good. One question, It's storing all the files on my C drive. I 
need to change this. Is this in the MDB or are you using an INI.

Re: [Flexradio] The RF and DRIVE controls on 1.63 console

2006-10-28 Thread Tim Ellison
RF Gain is the max gain for the AGC.  Reducing it sort of acts like RF
gain on older rigs.

Drive is somewhat analogues to RF power output on other rigs, but the
response of it is not linear.  All the way to the right is full drive.

There was a discussion here a while back about is it better to name a
control for exactly what it does or how it compares (action) to
traditional radios.  If you can find it, there is some interesting
reading there.
