Drax,

Best not to get into the calibration menus unless you know what you are 
doing and really need to.   Check your audio and AGC-T gain levels,  
they both have an effect on the audio level going to VAC.   You usually 
do not need to run the AGC-T gain past 70 or 80 .

Maybe do the rx calibration routine? Sounds like the signal levels are not

Re: [Flexradio] Power Master Software Question

2010-03-27 Thread Dudley Hurry

Frank,

Make sure you have the driver for the USB to serial adapter 
installed..   Then you will need to determine the actual Com port that 
is being assigned for the USB adapter.   This is what needs to go in the 
Com port setting of PowerMaster SW.

[Flexradio] really OT was Re: (no subject)

2010-03-27 Thread Neal Campbell
15 years ago I bought a shiny new FT1000D and it was my pride and joy, but
after a while it would not output any signal when I was on rtty (which is
99.99% of the time) so I called Yaesu and sent it back for repair. They got
it and it had been damaged in shipment so they fixed it, recalibrated it and
sent it back. I was very happy I could not tell what had been broken and
delighted with my new rig. My wife suggested I move my shack from one part
of the house to another and when I relocated, voila, the problem returned.
Nothing I did would resolve it, so back to the Yaesu factory. Checked out
100% with no problems so they sent it back. I hooked it back up and voila,
it worked! Then we had to move to Belgium and when my rig arrived and I
hooked it up, the problem returned so I figured it was intermittant and the
shipment must have caused it to return.

My shack in Belgium had a big enough room I was able to have 3 feet between
my desk and the wall so I walked behind the desk to disconnect it to send it
for repair and noticed I had plugged the data cable into the remote jack
right next to it. Every time I had connected my rig up, I never did it from
the rear but just probed the rear connections with the data cable and
whenever it fit, I assumed it was correct. They made the radio so the data
cable could fit in the remote jack and I had been plugging it in there all
these times. The times it worked, I had found the right socked by accident.

I called Yaesu to apologize.

On my 5000, any setting past -20db removes all signals from the DM780

I did this procedure.  The audio is 33% to 46% at -6 RX Gain.
I can still see some signals at -40 though.


-Original Message-

Can you do a quick test.
In the Setup form, do a database reset to make a copy of what you have and
clear out the DB.

The fire up PowerSDR and change only the minimum settings for the audio (do
96 KHz @ 1024 buffers - make sure the Firewire is set the same), set VAC up
just like the screen shot and set CAT if you need it.  Then see if the
problem exists.

-40 dB on the RX audio should produce NOTHING that would show up as signal
in DM-780.

When you have a lot of rf in the shack, its usually an antenna problem.

Re: [Flexradio] OK now PSK31 weirdness

2010-03-27 Thread Neal Campbell
When any digital program says its being overloaded, there is no telling what
artifacts occur since the signals are too strong for the logic, In DM780 in
the sound card setting page, did you check the 0db radio button?

On my 5000, any setting past -20db removes all signals from the DM780
waterfall display.

Re: [Flexradio] OK now PSK31 weirdness

2010-03-27 Thread Neal Campbell
Something is wrong when -40 produces enough audio for overload. Could you
give us a screenshot of PowerSDR? In your PSDR setup, you don't need to
check enable VAC AND enable VAC for digital modes. The first checkbox leaves
VAC on all the time while the second checkbox turns it on only when you do
DIGI-L or DIGI-U.

It is probably common mode currents on your coax finding there way to ground 
potential via the Firewire cable to the computer and then through the A/C 
safety ground.

Do you by change have unbalanced antennas and/or is the FLEX in the near field

If it works I guess I wouldn't touch it but you might consider getting a
higher quality cable. There are cheap ones and expensive ones but if you get
one from a quality manufacturer you get what you pay for. Thank goodness the
firewire cable market isn't as overhyped as the HDMI cable market, the
prices they charge at Best Buy just boggles the mind!

4500 miles apart  The SFI is 88 and its still an hour from darkness.  I was 
also able to hear myself on 40M at 4.7W  I was just out of the noise but Q5  
The noise was running -109dBm and I was peaking -105dBm on 40M and -109dBm and

Re: [Flexradio] FLEX-1500 to FLEX-1500 QSO Report

2010-03-27 Thread H . L .


900 miles! 1153 miles!  If this keeps up, the only QSO record left to 
be broken when the FLEX-1500 is finally shipping will be 
Earth-to-Moon.  


I am really looking forward to this feature-loaded little 
transceiver. May it be a out-of-the-ballpark hit for the company!


And, please devote a Saturday--or two--to write the few lines of 
extra code for an iPad touch-screen version of PowerSDR.

Re: [Flexradio] Failed to load resources from resource file

2010-03-27 Thread Tim Ellison
OK.  VAC 4.09 is not signed and it will have to be run in test mode.

VSPManager is signed and works fine on my Win7 x64 machine without test mode 
and a few hundred others can attest that it is doing the same on their PCs.

Did you by chance install VSP Manager while in test signing mode?

Try uninstalling VSPManager, rebooting in normal mode and installing it using 
administrator rights (run as administrator).

Then test in normal mode.  Once working, then go back to test mode for VAC to 
work properly.

VAC is not signed so you should expect that for 64bit systems. VSP should work 
though. It might be a different issue, try running it in Windows XP 
compatibility mode and see if it will work. I haven't seen any issues with 
VSPMgr on 64 bit systems myself.

Was vspManager installed in the test mode? I installed it in the normal
mode and I had no problems with signing issues. I then put the machine
in test mode to install VAC 4.09.

[Flexradio] Weirdness below AM broadcast band

2010-03-27 Thread Drax Felton

Last night I tuned the Flex 5000A below the AM broadcast band in the
vicinity of 400 to 500 kHz and I heard  a lot of CW activity like I was
listening to a ham band.  I know the Flex isn't really designed to listen
down there.  So what was going on?

I changed over to VSP Manager instead of Com0Com and the "Failed to load

I left everything, including the full version of HRD 5 v2494, running all 
night.  No crashes.

I might turn down the polling rate like you suggested though.

Re: [Flexradio] Failed to load resources from resource file

2010-03-27 Thread Dave Beumer WØDHB
Drax

It is a signed driver, the only unsigned driver I'm aware of is VAC at this
point .

VSP manager uses the Eltima VCOM software which is signed for 64 bit .
Works ok for me on Win 7 Pro 64 bit.

Only thing I don't like about VSP Manager is that I'm still required to run
with Windows UAC turned off and TESTSIGNING turned on.  I thought it was a
properly signed 64-bit driver?   It's Web site says nothing, that I saw,
about it.

I am running Windows 7 64-bit Professional Edition.
Processor AMD 965 Phenom II Quad Core.

This is good info for Com0Com users.

What operating system are you using?

I changed over to VSP Manager instead of Com0Com and the "Failed to load
resources from resource file" went away.
I left everything, including the full version of HRD 5 v2494, running all
night.  No crashes.

I might turn down the polling rate like you suggested though.

Thanks - been many hours of work and a lot of help from a crowd of keen
supporters. HRD Started in June 2003, almost seven years now!

Hope to be able to offer a fully integrated solution for Flex by the end of
the year at the latest.

Re: [Flexradio] Failed to load resources from resource file

2010-03-27 Thread howa...@howardz.com

Hi Drax

There are two suggestions for you:
1. Ham Radio Deluxe polls a radio for oodles of information, and does it 
several times per second.  You can slow this down in HRD Options to once 
per second, but I find even this is too much for PowerSDR.  There is 
free software available in N3ZH_Software which controls many things - 
tuners, radios, coax switch, RS232 relay box, etc..  One of the nice 
features is that this software does NOT poll a radio nearly as much as 
HRD, and it also supports HRD's Logbook and DM780 interfaces, so these 
two HRD programs can know the frequency, mode, etc..  Dozens of flex 
users are using this software as a sort of "HRD-Lite" - though the 
author did not intend it to fill such a purpose.  When you use this 
software, enable the "Allow Kenwood AI command" in PowerSDR's CAT 
control interface tab.


2. Item number one above helps alot, but I kept occasionally getting the 
"Failed to load resources from resource file" error.  I updated the 
firmware and PowerSDR to pretty betty SVN:3537, and never had another 
one of these errors ever again.  It seems to be stable - all the 
functions that I use seem to work fine.   It works so well that I 
suspect they are not working on the bread and butter features, but 
probably just adding support for the new 1500 and v/u modules?  
Nevertheless this is Alpha software and may have undesirable bugs.


Hope this helps you.

When I'm running Ham Radio Deluxe and DM780 for the digital modes.  Using
the newest VAC and Com0Com on Windows 7.

It all works good for awhile and then PowerSDR 1.18.5 comes up with a "Setup
Error" that says "Failed to load resources from resource file. Please check
your Setup."

 


And then HRD looses CAT control with this message  "Timeout. The connection
with PowerSDR on COM7 has stopped working."

I then have to shut down everything and reload it all.

 


Any ideas on what is going on?
