Re: [Flexradio] Flex5000A Calibration routine question
No changes.

[Flexradio] Flex5000A Calibration routine question
I have not yet had a reply to this question, so I'll repeat it... Originally, the settings in the instructions when running the "Ctrl-Shift-P" calibration routine was: Reset to Clean database Safe Mode 1 Buffer=1024 S/R= 96000khz Is there a new list of settings, or a new procedure to run the BITE routines, or do I just use a clean database and set the S/R and Buffers...? I'm trying to establish a performance baseline and this info is important Thanks for your timeJordan VE6ZT ___ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/
[Flexradio] NR Settings
T he settings I use on my Flex 3000 are Taps 58, Delay 8, Gain 10, Leaks 1 . Your mileage may vary depending on the quality of the external speaker or headset used. I have used these settings since v.2.1.2 -- Ted, WB2LOU You cannot change history, but you can make history ! ___ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/

Well, Terry, I sadly fear that you are doomed to more or less perpetual disappointment. 73 Lee K9WRU - Original Message - From: Terry Maurice To: Lee Mushel Cc: flexradio Sent: Monday, April 22, 2013 9:01 AM Subject: Re: [Flexradio] NR Settings Lee It is very true that one can encounter many kinds of noise on the various bands, but for the most part what I am trying to eliminate, or at least reduce, is the background hiss to bring out the signal from the noise.

My bottom line is, if BHI have been relatively successful in this regard, then the Flex should be able to do likewise, especially so, considering all the other wonderful things they have done in software defined radio.
