That band plan is a really awful thing.   Why have a Flex Radio?  The  
plan calls for 2.7 kHz SSB bandwidth and 6 kHz AM (and not much of  
that).  You sure don't need a Flex radio to do that.

Perhaps we can derail this thing.

Jon,

Take it positively. Isn't it good that you have the excellent digital
filters in your Flex Radio? With the 2.4 kHz SSB filter you can pass
safely your 300 Hz to 2.7 kHz audio modulation to the ionosphere and
rest safe that you don't splatter around with your unnecessarily broad
transmission and disturb your fellow hams on the neighboring channels.

And by the way, I really wonder that some still, after more than 60
years of amateur SSB, want to use double sideband with full carrier
outside anywhere else than in Faraday cages of some Radio Museums.

Re: [Flexradio] New Bandplan effective Jan 2008

2007-10-17 Thread Jeff Anderson
The Flex's ability to receive, and to transmit, bandwidths greater than 2.7
KHz make it my favorite radio, by far.

Fortunately out here on the West Coast, bands such as 75 meters are not at
all congested.  If the bandwidth is available and you're not interfering
with anyone, what's the harm of running a SSB signal that's 4 to 5 KHz wide?
It sounds *great* on the Flex.  Give it a try.  Once you do you'll realize
that 2.4 KHz audio, by comparison, sounds terrible.

As for AM - some of those old boatanchors truly sound amazing and are a joy
to listen to.  And it's also a step back into history, envoking a different
era of ham radio.  Why run AM, you wonder?  Heck, you might as well ask,
why run CW?  Both are outdated (in my opinion), but both can also be great
fun.

Best regards from the Left Coast,

- Jeff, K6JCA

[Flexradio] Band Plan

2007-10-17 Thread Charles Greene
Hi,

Very similar to the frequency by bandwidth plan RM-306 ARRL proposed 
and FCC turned down with most of the same problems that caused the 
FCC to turn it down.  Screws CW and digimode operators.  What 
happened to the 7070 US digimode subband?  I operate digimode DX on 
7035, so now Region I  III will share it with Region II, so goodbye 
DX.  Provision for PIII, which probably is inevitable.  Note they are 
out of SSB operators hair at expense of CW and narrow band digital 
modes.  All the same as RM-360 except no one got to make comments or 
oppose it.  That's democracy for you.  You can see ARRL's behind 
this.  CW code practice on 3525 and 7025, or are they going to 
discontinue that too?  Lousy magazine anyway.

Suggest we write FCC so they don't make it law, and then we can ignore it

[Flexradio] ShuttlePro Keymap.pdf

2007-10-17 Thread Rob Dennison
Hi guys,

I was trying to program my ShuttlePro this AM.  

It appears that the Flexradio document keymap.pdf is not fully up to date
with PowerSDR v1.10.1 and higher.  For instance MultiRX apparently has no
corresponding key stroke listed in the PDF.  Likewise CW memories don't
seem to have a correlation with CWX. (Might it be necessary to be able to
switch focus between the main and CWX windows as well as reassignment of
keys?)

Perhaps I have just downloaded an old version of Keymap.pdf?  
Alternatively is there any thought to bring the keystrokes and PowerSDR
into sync?

Would be nice to rarely need to take a hand off the ShuttlePro. 

Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: [Flexradio] New Bandplan effective Jan 2008

2007-10-17 Thread Rob Dennison
 Hi Scott,

Sounds like good thoughts.

Here's the way I feel about band plans:

There is a good analogy between hunting regulations and communications
regulations.  

There are antique hunting weapons and modern fire arms.   It is
universally accepted that different seasons make for safety and maximum
results.  Generally speaking different seasons for archers, black powder,
modern firearms etc.   Modern Firearms tend to get the bulk of the
hunting season.  

Similary there are antique communication modes and modern communication
modes.  It must  be accepted that different spectrum allocations will
make for minimum interference and maximum results in the communications
world.  Generally speaking different spectrum for CW, AM, SSB and modern
digital modes .  Over the long term, digital modes ought to get the bulk
of spectrum.

Now there is a serious problem with ARRL's attempt to allocate spectrum
by waveform bandwidth.   One can no more separate communication modes by
bandwidth then one can separate hunting seasons by muzzle velocity. 
There is too much overlap.

My two cents worth...

Subject: [Flexradio] ShuttlePro  Keymap.pdf

Hi guys,

I was trying to program my ShuttlePro this AM.  

It appears that the Flexradio document keymap.pdf is not fully up to
date
with PowerSDR v1.10.1 and higher.  For instance MultiRX apparently has
no
corresponding key stroke listed in the PDF.  Likewise CW memories don't
seem to have a correlation with CWX. (Might it be necessary to be able
to
switch focus between the main and CWX windows as well as reassignment of
keys?)

Perhaps I have just downloaded an old version of Keymap.pdf?  
Alternatively is there any thought to bring the keystrokes and PowerSDR
into sync?

Would be nice to rarely need to take a hand off the ShuttlePro. 

Thanks in advance for your help.

 Hi Tim,

Thanks for your fast answer...

It would be nice if the powers that be could revisit the keymap and bring
it up to the current release of PowerSDR.

Seems like there are a number of vacant slots in the Alts  Ctls, not to
speak for three key combos...

I suppose I could make a recommendation if I knew who to make it to...

  Jon,
 
  Take it positively. Isn't it good that you have the excellent 
 digital
  filters in your Flex Radio? With the 2.4 kHz SSB filter you can 
 pass
  safely your 300 Hz to 2.7 kHz audio modulation to the ionosphere 
 and
  rest safe that you don't splatter around with your unnecessarily 
 broad
  transmission and disturb your fellow hams on the neighboring 
 channels.
 
  And by the way, I really wonder that some still, after more than 
 60
  years of amateur SSB, want to use double sideband with full 
 carrier
  outside anywhere else than in Faraday cages of some Radio 
 Museums.
 
  Best regards from the RF-congested Europe,

2007-10-17 Thread jcharley
Try this with your SDR 1000 or SDR 5000
PowerSDR version 1.10.1 or later.
Set SDR in CWL or CWU
Set break in delay to 5000 msec
Connect SDR to dummy load
Tune your signal in on a 2nd RX.
Set your power on SDR now to Zero.
Send a dit on the SDR.
Do you hear a tone that remains on for as long as your breakin delay is set for?
(This tone may be slightly off from the signal you first tuned in.)

Let me know what you get.  Thanks.

Re: [Flexradio] New Bandplan effective Jan 2008

2007-10-17 Thread W5CUL
Particularly when well EQ'd, the fidelity and intelligibility is greatly
increased even at a 40Hz to 3.5Khz transmit band-pass.  One does not have to
second guess what is being said by the other station, as at that band-pass
it is starting to sound like they are right in your shack sitting next to
you while conversing.  

Being unsociable is either knowingly transmitting into someone else's
band-pass, or transmitting a broad signal in crowded conditions, both of
which says a lot about the individual operator as opposed to the bandwidth
he is currently occupying.  Remember, this operator is on a Flex, and can
easily adjust their transmit bandwidth on the fly.
