I was digging through a dumpster out behind the Flex Radio offices and came
upon the following information scrawled on a notepad, heavily stained by
what looked like a chili-cheese burrito.  It appears that these forward
looking statements may give us some insight into what to expect from the
next release of power SDR.

Nothing dangerous about Facebook.

What is dangerous is when people are stupid enough to join something 
like Facebook and then enter all their correct personal information, 
Facebook is very useful and a great way to keep in touch with friends 
and family. In fact I've connected with many family members I had 
forgotten about and some I never knew.


Like, I said. People are stupid to enter real personal info into these 
sites, just modify your info, create an e-mail address from gmail or 
hotmail to use on sites like FB, and the dangerous part of FB now does 
not matter.


Lets talk about radio. I love my Flex 3000.

[Flexradio] PowerSDR v2.3.5 - Some new feature info

2012-02-26 Thread Tim Ellison, W4TME
This listing is not complete or comprehensive, but is what has been 
shared on the Facebook page.


===

PowerSDR v2.3.x New Feature Alert #1: TX Profiles saves all of the TX 
specific parameters, like Mixer settings, DSP buffers, VOX, DEXP, AM 
carrier level, (most) VAC parameters, etc...


===

PowerSDR v2.3.x New Feature Alert #2: Memory database auto backup and 
recovery. If the memory database becomes corrupted due to a forced or 
dirty shut down of PowerSDR, a backup of the DB, which is created when 
you start PowerSDR is automatically used to recover the lost memories. 
You may lose memories entered from the last session, but not the entire 
file.


===

PowerSDR v2.3.x New Feature Alert #3: 60m Band and new Channel Mode of 
operation for PowerSDR. In addition to supporting the new 60m channel 3 
refactoring and the ability to operate CW (including TUNe) and digital 
modes, PowerSDR has a new Channel Mode for 60m. The 60m band has the 
five 60m channels (bandwidth) defined in the Panadapter. While within a 
channel's defined bandwidth, if you select CW, you will automatically be 
placed in the center of the channel (as per the new regulations) taking 
into account the CW sidetone offset. You will be able to change your 
frequency and transmit within the channel boundaries, but be midful of 
the regulations. Also there is no power restriction as you can now 
transmit up to 100W PEP on 60m.


PowerSDR v2.3.x New Feature Alert #4: New Skins. There are six (6) new 
skins in PowerSDR. They are all original or derivative works from Beppe 
IK3VIG. They include multicolored buttons and new Panadapter backgrounds.


===

PowerSDR v2.3.5 New Feature Alert #5: Database backup and recovery. When 
PowerSDR is started, a session backup of the database is created with 
the _SBU suffix appended to the file name. If while you have PowerSDR 
open, you get your radio in a state where you want to revert back to how 
it was configured when you started PowerSDR, you do a database Import 
from the Setup form selecting the SBU backup.


If you happen to shut down PowerSDR and then decide you want to go back 
to the initial operating state of your radio, when you restart PowerSDR 
v2.3.5, you do a database Import from the Setup form selecting the 
database with the _BAK suffix appended to the file name. This is the 
1st generation created when PowerSDR is shut down.

[Flexradio] FaceBook

2012-02-26 Thread Ian Scoble
Hi All
  I have no argument with using any of the social networks if they are
used correctly then they can be very helpful, 
it is not the medium that is the problem but the people that use them.
  I agree that a lot of the personal and not so personal information
that is posted is a load of rubbish and I pity the people that post it but
it is this that gets the bad press
not the stuff that is useful. I have to say that with facebook and twitter
applications being incorporated into most smartphones why not take advantage
of it if you want but you are the one that is in control,
you don't have to follow garbage just follow the good stuff you never my
know what you may learn!

My two cents/pence

2012-02-26 Thread Jim McLester - W4YXU
I have a few Nits to pick.  For sure, these are completely in the Nit
category and are mentioned more as suggestion, not as a complaint. 

Before I consider making a few feecher requests, I would like to run this
past the crowd to see just how nuts I really am!

1. I use multiple monitors.  I would like to make PSDR come up in FULL
screen mode.  It fits one monitor nicely.  The 16 x 9 or 10 monitor aspect
ratio seems to be the new standard.

2. I like to bring up the Voltage / Temp. display and leave it.  (My shack
is VERY dusty and the ^%$%^  cat sheds - I need a warning on the fan!) A
command line parameter perhaps?

3. Expert mode needs to be Sticky or something like that.  Maybe red text,
or just make the warning highly visible. 

4. Mouse wheel ALLWAYS on the frequency even when mouse is elsewhere (until
focus is changed anyway)causes me minor disasters.  Mouse can be focused on
a slider and wheel will move slider one click and then go back to frequency.
It does not seem consistent.  I will re-research this and make list.

5. There are a number of setup values that can only be incremented /
decremented by 5 or 10, a rather mixed blessing here.  DDS offset and
Waterfall background come to mind.

Again, I want to stress these are NOT serious to me.  These are just areas
that would make a GREAT product even better here.

1. I use multiple monitors.  I would like to make PSDR come up in FULL
screen mode.  It fits one monitor nicely.  The 16 x 9 or 10 monitor aspect
ratio seems to be the new standard.

2. I like to bring up the Voltage / Temp. display and leave it.  (My shack
is VERY dusty and the^%$%^  cat sheds - I need a warning on the fan!) A
command line parameter perhaps?

3. Expert mode needs to be Sticky or something like that.  Maybe red text,
or just make the warning highly visible.

4. Mouse wheel ALLWAYS on the frequency even when mouse is elsewhere (until
focus is changed anyway)causes me minor disasters.  Mouse can be focused on
a slider and wheel will move slider one click and then go back to frequency.
It does not seem consistent.  I will re-research this and make list.

5. There are a number of setup values that can only be incremented /
decremented by 5 or 10, a rather mixed blessing here.  DDS offset and
Waterfall background come to mind.

Again, I want to stress these are NOT serious to me.  These are just areas
that would make a GREAT product even better here.

 Then they let us know when the next release may be finished and if it didn't

 Do us ALL a favor and stop the bitching about every little thing FLEX does

Re: [Flexradio] New Release

2012-02-26 Thread Stephen Potter
Why don't we all give up this new fangled internet social medium, I mean who 
needs bulletin boards, forums, email reflector's, social networking sites etc

Let's get back to radio net's   I mean we are all radio amateurs aren't we, we 
don't need this computer stuff?

Oh sorry I forgot, we have computers because we have the most technically 
superior radio's available, and as such we have merged our radio passion with 
'some' level of computer knowledge, passion or at the very least interest.

Heterogeneous social networking is what we do and have done for years using 
many forms of radio, computer communications, and so why not add the latest 
social sites such as Facebook to this optional list.

I have read a series of articles in a UK radio magazine about SDR radio's, 
which while interesting, mentioned Flex-Radio in about 6 lines of text... it 
seems obvious the author has no idea of the size of the flex family and the 
number of its users around the world... If facebook helps to let people know 
about Flex-radio then it has to be a great thing.

Remember, its OPTIONAL, choose one of several forms of social networking

73 Steve

3. Expert mode needs to be Sticky or something like that.  Maybe red text,

4. Mouse wheel ALLWAYS on the frequency even when mouse is elsewhere (until
focus is changed anyway)causes me minor disasters.  Mouse can be focused on
a slider and wheel will move slider one click and then go back to frequency.
It does not seem consistent.  I will re-research this and make list.

5. There are a number of setup values that can only be incremented /

Re: [Flexradio] [FlexEdge] PowerSDR v2.3.5 - Some new feature info

2012-02-26 Thread Dudley Hurry

Jim,

Some of what you are asking is already there,  but one for sure is a 
Windows issue and not something that Flex can correct,   keeping the 
mouse focused on the Frequency,   this is a MS issue..  There are 
several ways to try to get around it,  and there is a Wiki article about 
this too.


http://flexradiowiki.com/frsradoiowiki/index.php?title=Mouse_hover_focus-shift

Or you can use the FlexControl knob,  which can stay focused.

PowerSDR should already remember the last size and position of you 
video,  unless your video driver likes to reset everything, and start it 
on the 1st or Windows screen.


I think that all the values windows are where you can highlight and type 
in the value,  even the DDS,  even faction of a value..   Try it..By 
the way,  on the sliders, if you move your cursor just to the right or 
left of the slider button itself,  left click, then the slider will only 
move one digit value for each click..


Maybe this will make your short list even shorter..   hi  hi

73,
Dudley

I have a few Nits to pick.  For sure, these are completely in the Nit
category and are mentioned more as suggestion, not as a complaint.

Before I consider making a few feecher requests, I would like to run this
past the crowd to see just how nuts I really am!

1. I use multiple monitors.  I would like to make PSDR come up in FULL
screen mode.  It fits one monitor nicely.  The 16 x 9 or 10 monitor aspect
ratio seems to be the new standard.

2. I like to bring up the Voltage / Temp. display and leave it.  (My shack
is VERY dusty and the^%$%^  cat sheds - I need a warning on the fan!) A
command line parameter perhaps?

3. Expert mode needs to be Sticky or something like that.  Maybe red text,
or just make the warning highly visible.

4. Mouse wheel ALLWAYS on the frequency even when mouse is elsewhere (until
focus is changed anyway)causes me minor disasters.  Mouse can be focused on
a slider and wheel will move slider one click and then go back to frequency.
It does not seem consistent.  I will re-research this and make list.

5. There are a number of setup values that can only be incremented /
decremented by 5 or 10, a rather mixed blessing here.  DDS offset and
Waterfall background come to mind.

Again, I want to stress these are NOT serious to me.  These are just areas
that would make a GREAT product even better here.

I think we need to roll this discussion as it relates to Flex and the

Then, everyone can get in to the discussion at the same time and leave
these 2 forums to discussing actual technical issues with either Flex or

Michael, while I am with you in the spirit, my experience with listservs
and reflectors (and FB pages) is that they go where they want to go and
efforts to redirect them either get the razzberry or get ignored.

If you want to see fierce, unyielding attempts to make a reflector go where
a few individuals want it to go...and the utter lack of success those
individuals encounter, check out the Time Nuts.

Re: [Flexradio] New Release

2012-02-26 Thread Robert Costa, KB6QXM
IMHO, I believe that Flex is using Facebook for many reasons. One of them is to 
spread the word of Flex to a different demographic. The future of Flex Radio is 
for younger hams who grew up with computers to embrace the technology and take 
Flex into the future.

I can understand that the average age of ham radio operators is over 50 and 
therefore do not embrace the whole social media craze. I personally do not have 
a Facebook account only out of the  identity theft potential.

Hi All 
I have no argument with using any of the social networks if they are 
used correctly then they can be very helpful, 
it is not the medium that is the problem but the people that use them. 
I agree that a lot of the personal and not so personal information 
that is posted is a load of rubbish and I pity the people that post it but 
it is this that gets the bad press 
not the stuff that is useful. I have to say that with facebook and twitter 
applications being incorporated into most smartphones why not take advantage 
of it if you want but you are the one that is in control, 
you don't have to follow garbage just follow the good stuff you never my

Amateur radio was the first technology-based social network. (I 
don't count the telegraph or the telephone because of their 
essentially private nature.) It was apparently dominated by young 
whippersnappers in its early days, if the literature is any indication.


One always takes a hit in the privacy department when engaging in 
any activity that potentially has an audience, though. You want your 
friends, and potential friends, to see or hear or read you. We're 
all social beings. And amateur radio and Facebook are both great at 
facilitating the meeting of people with interesting minds and common 
interests.


But the malicious are also watching. (75 meters is proof of that.) 
And just maybe Zuckerberg's employees and the government have more 
than the usual percentage of malicious people. And just maybe there 
are more of them than there used to be. One makes one's choices and 
takes one's chances, and may our screen names confound them!



With all good wishes,


Kevin, WB4AIO.

[Flexradio] Radio locks up when pressing the TUN button

2012-02-26 Thread Gary Warner

Something odd happened today.

I am running a Flex 3000.   I was at 28.457 and trying to tune up the 
radio to my antenna with my tuner.   I had just tuned successfully just 
a little off this frequency and was just touching up the tune.   I 
pressed the TUN button in Power SDR, and it totally locked up and 
continued to transmit.   The only way I could make it stop was to use 
ALT-F4 to close Power SDR (version 2.2.3), or to turn off the radio, 
which, of course, crashes Power SDR.   I tried changing the frequency, 
and it worked flawlessly on all other bands, and also on this band 
without any lockup, EXCEPT between 28.4558 and 28.4575 where it 
consistently locked up Power SDR.


I finally tried reducing the tune power from the 50 watts my copy of 
Power SDR to 10 watts, and it seems to have made the problem go away.   
I do not recall changing the default tune power to 50 watts, and now 
wonder why it is variable if it can cause Power SDR to lock up.   I see 
that the screen capture in the manual shows it set at 10 watts, but why 
is it allowed to be changed?What else is TUN used for?

2012-02-26 Thread Tim Ellison, W4TME
Which tuner are you trying to tune?  The internal tuner in the F3K or an 
external tuner?


The reason higher power levels are allowed when tuning is some external 
ATUs and amps need more than 10 watts.


We also use TUNe at 100 watts into a dummy load to verify the PA maximum 
output without have to hook up a key in CW mode to do it.

[Flexradio] Help with VAC

2012-02-26 Thread Ken Alexander
I know this isn't a VAC support forum, but everyone seems to use it so here 
goes.

I purchased a copy of VAC last week.  Uninstalled my demo version and installed 
the full version.  I'm going through How to Set Up VAC 4.x in the Flex 
Knowledge Centre, and my copy of VAC shows one cable that currently exists.  
The instructions say that to create a second cable I go to the Drive Parameters 
area in the VAC Control Panel, change 1 to 2 in the Cables box, click Set and 
Click Restart.

I change 1 to 2 and click Set and get the following message:  Cannot change 
device property (0/5 - Access is denied).  Then VAC quits and I have to 
restart it.


I don't even understand what that error message means!  Can someone explain in 
words I can understand what's happening here?  I've tried the VAC Help but I 
find it so full of jargon I don't understand it makes me dizzy, which, 
admittedly is pretty easy!  :-)


No other software is currently running, including PSDR.

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: [Flexradio] Radio locks up when pressing the TUN button

2012-02-26 Thread Gary Warner

Tim,

Thanks for the quick response.

I was trying to tune through my Palstar AT2K manual tuner.   You are 
correct that it does not lock up when using the internal tuner.   I 
wonder why that particular combination of frequency and power caused it 
to lock up when just a few kilohertz away it worked fine?   I assume 
that your recommendation for power is anything less than the power that 
locks it up?

Re: [Flexradio] OT FaceBook

2012-02-26 Thread Frederick Bray
The thing that concerns many about Facebook -- and other services such 
as Google and Yahoo -- is the data mining and aggregation that is 
performed.  Often this is done without the full knowledge and consent of 
the users -- especially regarding the uses that the information is 
ultimately put to.  Books such as I Know Who You Are and I Saw What You 
Did and The Filter Bubble: What the Internet Is Hiding From You make 
very interesting reading.


This is not to say that social networks and other internet services are 
of no value.   However, just as with what is said over the radio, very 
little is secret or secure when posted on-line regardless of how private 
you may think it is.

I went to my email on the Charter Web site and found over 1000 messages, 
including more than 400 from these two reflectors, but I could not 
retrieve them to my Thunderbird inbox (although my other charter email 
address is working fine). I then found that a Thunderbird setting for 
this account had been changed (maybe it was something I had done myself 
that seemed like a good idea at the time); I changed it back to the same 
as the other and now I have all these messages in the folders to which 
my filters directed them. Sorry for disturbing the peace of these 
reflectors.

[Flexradio] Windows 7 problems

2012-02-26 Thread Ray Gustafson
I just built a new Computer using Win 7 for the Flex 3000

I am have problems  with freesing up and distorted Audio.

Works Ok on XPpro computer yet , it is that I want ot use Teamview remote
and it maxs out the XP Computer using that.

The Win 7 Computer is a Gigabyte 990XA-UD3  MB  with AMD FX 4-core
Processor with Win 7 64bit

I have tried the  intergraded 1934 fire wire, and firewire cards from my XP
Computer, Legacy drivers etc.

I am wondering if there is a compatidilty problem with this Mother BD. I
got the parts from a local Computer
store that has a 7 day return policy and wondering if I should take the MB
back and try Asus Mother BD .

Tried different PCI slots with the Fire cards , Is there problem with
running win 7 64bit with the Firecards that I have ?



Any thing I can check or try next,

my $0.02 worth

I WAS apprehensive about facebook...but cratered since my high school class 
reunion was going therewasted a ridiculous amount of time trying to make an 
interesting  pagenoboby looked at it, outside of immediately family...took 
the good stuff off...

overall, it's pretty harmless ( knock on wood ), as long as you dial in some 
security...

they certainly do NOT have a stellar reputation for security...but it certain 
caters to the 'all about me' mentality of today's 'connected' 
generation...here is me doing ...

go for it, if only to stay connected to the flex page73, w5xz, dan

This sound like DPC problems.  Have you check the DPC latency with 
LatencyMon? http://www.resplendence.com/latencymon


As a starting point for resolving your problems, I would check to see if 
there is a BIOS update for your motherboard; if so, install it.  Also 
make sure you have the latest Catalyst drivers for the AMD based 
motherboard. http://support.amd.com/us/Pages/AMDSupportHub.aspx
