Re: [Flexradio] Leveler

[David Walker]

Thanks Brian,

I was getting good audio reports but I followed that adjustment routine 
on the wiki.  Previously my mic gain was hitting -2 on the alc with the 
mic gain on 15.  So now it's at the mid way point.


I am sure I will continue getting good reports on my ssb transmissions.

I see the compounder now makes a noticable difference than with my 
original settings.  I couldn't hear any difference at all with my 
previous settings.




Cheers,

Dave

Hi,

I cannot find any info on how to set the leveler which I assume is

Are the default settings usually the best or are their other
settings.  i don't quite understand the parameters.


There is an excellent article on how to set all the transmit levels, 
i.e. mixer, mic gain, EQ, leveler, ALC, in the FlexRadioWiki. See:

Re: [Flexradio] VAC does not work with Win7 64-bit

[Graham Haddock]

Tony:

On Windows 7, you need to right-click and run-as-administrator every time
you start VAC.  If you do not, then things like you describe can happen.

If you forgot, even once during your installation and setup, best to
uninstall
VAC completely (as administrator), then go back in and re-install and set
up,
each time, as administrator.

Hi folks,

I had everything set up and running fine under Win7 32-bit: PSDR, VAC, VSP, 
MixW, CW Skimmer, and all the WSJT software. Setting up VAC was no problem; it 
worked just as the knowledge base said, right from the word go.

But then I built this cool new 64-bit machine. It's all up and going, running 
great and fast as lightning with Win7 64-bit, and ever app I had before is 
installed and running -- except VAC.

I installed the 64-bit version and brought up the control panel. When I try to 
do anything, it sez: Cannot change device property (0/X - Access is denied). 
The number 'X' is different, depending on what I try to do, but the message is 
otherwise always the same. The VAC window then crashes.

I can actually set the cable parameters by clicking on Set and letting the 
window crash; when I come back, the parm is changed as I requested. However, 
the program does not work.

The devices appear in the Windows Audio dropdown, and they appear as available 
devices in the PSDR Setup VAC page. I can assign audio streams to them; but no 
audio goes through. If I bring up the VAC control panel, it shows nothing in 
the rightmost columns.

Without VAC there's not much I can do. Any suggestions?

Re: [Flexradio] No RX Audio in CW modes

[Lee Mushel]

Tim & Dudley,

Would you please ask the programmers to check operation of the 5000A with 
all options installed.   I run "22" on the 3000 so I don't have any 
problems.   I strongly suspect that if I had the new knob and button thing I 
wouldn't have noticed all of these things but I would really like to have 
the audio functions work in a 5000A with RX2 and V/U!  And I'm not 
complaining about having to hit the start button twice to avoid the 
"pulsing"just the tremendous difficulty in finding settings that will 
allow me to hear a 2M FM station without having my ear next to a speaker 
cone.


Maybe we could start with being able to button click the squelches on and 
off.


I will say that the new software is easy to install and that process went 
quickly and without a hitch---I think.


As I've told you many times, my 5000A is connected to the exact same Toshiba 
lap top bought at Best Buy running Vista that John Basilotto first used to 
demo the radio when it was first introduced.  Sure hope you didn't throw 
that out with the bathwater.

Hi Tim & Dudley

I have described this issue previously.
Flex-5000A WinXP.

I upgraded to RC3 yesterday and the problem was fixed. I restart PSDR 
today
and the problem is back. So something happens after the initial run of 
PSDR

...

After I change from SSB to CWU I don't get sound from the speakers if the
"Sidetone" box is ticked. Unticking Sidetone brings the RX Audio back?

Re: [Flexradio] Flex 1500 and the FUNcube Dongle

[Alan P. Biddle]

Mike,

Take a look at this mode-J filter:

http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/articles/Mode-J/

However, you will almost certainly need a low noise preamp on 70 cm.  A few,
N8MH and myself included, have does this experiment.  The preamp should
provide enough selection to protect the FCD, but you may overload the preamp
itself, unless it is a high end unit.  The SSB Electronics preamps work
fine, but are about twice the price of the FCD.

There has been some discussion on both filters and preamps on the various
Yahoo FCD groups.

73s,

On the main top menu-- select Setup, then Transmit.  You can create 
newly named transmitter audio chains right there.  That is, make all 
your adjustments, then go to this place, create a unique name for it, 
and save.  All the transmit audio chain settings are saved.


I have different "Transmit Profiles"  for different mics and my headset, 
plus my wife has different profiles for her, since she has a different 
voice.

Brian, excellent article!   But it suggests:  "save them in your TX profile
"

How does one do this

[Flexradio] Future FlexControl users - Installation heads up

[Tim (W4TME)]

To all Flexers who have purchased the new FlexControl tuning knob

Since the FlexControls are now shipping in volume and will start showing 
up at your QTH shortly, there is an installation consideration you 
should be aware of if you use VSPmanager for virtual com port access.  
There is a bug in the Eltima API used in VSPmanager that results in the 
possibility of the FlexControl's assigned physical com port to conflict 
with an already defined virtual com port resulting in at worst, a 
Windows crash (BSoD).  There have also been reports of other virtual com 
port software causing issues too, so this condition is not exclusive to 
VSPmanager.


This information is in the FlexControl errata that is included with the 
FlexControl, but I thought it would be useful to provide a proactive 
notice for those who might want to take action before your FlexControl 
arrives.  You can download a copy of the FlexControl errata using this 
URL: http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=370


The issue is that VSPmanager is not properly reporting it's virtual com 
ports to Windows and when the FlexControl drivers are initialized and a 
physical com port is assigned by Windows to the FlexControl process,  
that assigned com port is already in use by VSPmanager.  Two 
applications cannot have exclusive use of the same comport, resulting in 
the operating system crash.


This situation arises when you have virtual comports that are assigned 
to low numbered comports; such as 1-9 since that is the likely range of 
com ports Windows will assign to new physical com ports.


You can mitigate this problem in two ways.

First by defining virtual com ports that are not in the range of 1-9.  
So if you have virtual com port pairs defined where either of the com 
port end points are in this range, delete the com port pair and 
re-create it with the com port end points greater than 9.


If you have already installed PowerSDR 2.1.x, then remove VSPmanager 
(make sure you delete the com port pairs first), install PowerSDR v2.1 
RC3 or later, get the FlexControl working properly and then install 
VSPmanager and define your virtual com port pairs.  In this case, since 
the FlexControl is already installed and has a physical com port 
assigned, VSPmanager correctly identifies the physical comport that the 
FlexControl is using and will not allow you to create a virtual com port 
using the com port already in use resulting in no com port conflict.

Re: [Flexradio] [FlexEdge] BSOD with RC's

[William H. Fite]

Tim probably has a much better solution but I found myself in exactly your
situation.  My solution was to uninstall vspm, then reinstall PSDR, then
reinstall vspm.  That solved the problem, though I am not sure why.

Good luck,

Bill

There is an excellent article on how to set all the transmit levels, 
i.e. mixer, mic gain, EQ, leveler, ALC, in the FlexRadioWiki. See:

[Flexradio] Leveler

[David Walker]

Hi,

I cannot find any info on how to set the leveler which I assume is like 
an AGC for microphone input gain.


Are the default settings usually the best or are their other settings.  
i don't quite understand the parameters.


Cheers,

Dave
