Re: [Flexradio] Power Supply Advice

2014-06-12 Thread John Molenda
This simple device looks interesting .  The proper way for me to refer 
to how it works would be ... it shows how much my equipment is drawing 
from the power supply or . it shows how hard your power supply is 
working by listing the voltage and amperage use ?  or both ?thanks

operation.

If your equipment is important to you rebuild the Astron P.S. every 5 years
or so of continuous operation, you may be lucky enough to get 10 years out
of it but your asking for trouble, this is why around here you never see
Astron Power supplies at a commercial Mountain top site on commercial radio

Most Commercial installation these days use there own design, I do know
Kenwood systems use Duracom switcher Pwr. Supplies but these are a bit

on HF so don't play well in Amateur use.

Dudley,

I agree.  Our club had an Astron RM-35 that had the series pass transistor
fail (short).  The output voltage went to the maximum provided by the
transformer & the 2 rigs connected to it were damaged.  The Yaesu FT-950
was
repairable, but a Yaesu FM rig was not economical to repair.

A problem with linear supplies is that if the series transistor fails, the
result is a serious over-voltage situation.

Keep am eye on the analog power supplies ,  over time they will begin to

Do any of you Flexers own a pair of these Radiosport headsets ? and what is the

No, it is not. The 3000 is NOT a QRP rig at QRP levels. Just the idle

Raise the output to 10W and the current is 10A at 13.8V.

[Flexradio] 1500

2012-10-05 Thread John Molenda
Just some info , Even with up dating with the most recent firmware 
(2.4.4 ) I am unable to use CW on my 1500 with out an external keyer .  
However I did purchase and put together the pico keyer kit and when used 
with the 1500 and turning the sidetone off on the radio I am able to 
operate with CW no problem .  I am now ready to tackle the flex 5000a , 
will try it with out the external keyer first and if I can't get it to 
work again with the latest firmware update I will put the Ham gadgets 
Master keyer MK-1 in line and see what happens . I guess this info for 
most of you is nothing new but I was under the assumption that the new 
firmware eliminated the need for a external keyer . I am just glad it is 
working now . John kb2huk

Alex,

After installing v2.4.4 on my Win 7/32 system (Flex 5000), I started 
experiencing "freezes" every one to two hours, even under "Safe Mode 
Level 2". I had not experienced this problem with 2.3.5 running the 
"legacy" driver. The Firewire applet showed that I was getting at 
least one DPC of over 50,000 microseconds when the freezes occurred.


I tried disabling various applications that were running with PowerSDR 
to no avail. I finally went back to review recent posts on
this list and noted that Neal Campbell, our local computer guru, 
suggested that we try using the driver included with Windows 7 instead 
of the "legacy" driver. I did that yesterday afternoon and let the 
system run overnight with no freezes, so it appears that the problem 
may have been solved, at least for my Firewire card. I also returned 
to "Normal Mode"

before I ran the test overnight which should improve latency performance.

I played a YouTube video while PowerSDR 2.4.4 was running this morning 
to replicate your issue and everything ran fine for me.


Best of luck in solving your problem!

Hi Ted,

it happened to me also and I had to do a complete rollback to 235.
My setup: Flex-3000, Win7 64bit, SONY VAIO notebook with firewire port.

I have no issues at all with PSDR 235, although it runs on the Flex 
driver with "safe mode 3". There is a latency issue, as I have to have 
AnitVir firewall and some other programs running in the background. My 
crash test is to have PSDR running and to look at a video clip on 
YouTube at the same time. 235 runs, 244 freezes.


I had a direct contact with my FlexRadio representative here in 
Germany and he told me the same everybody does: set "safe mode 2", 
take the old legacy driver... nothing works... rollback then...


I think that the FlexRadio programmers should rework their firewire 
driver to run on our systems also or we will miss all the updates in 
the future.


BTW it you need the rollback info, just mail me at dh...@darc.de

OK , Dumb question .  When you gentlemen talk about running a different 
fire wire driver I get a little confused. I am thinking the fire wire 
driver is some software in the computer to operate the fire wire card in 
side the computer is that correct ? If so how do I find out what fire 
wire card I have and what software is running it ? or what software to 
switch to ?  Just so that I am clear we are not talking about the fire

[Flexradio] great audio !

2012-09-10 Thread John Molenda
Well couldn't sleep last night got up about 0600Z hrs .  I went down 
stairs and turned on the flex 1500 ,nothing much on ham wise so started 
to look around the BC and SW bands . I want to tell you I enjoyed myself 
for over an hour just looking around and listening to different short 
wave stations .  Finally I settled on a station out of Toronto Ca. AM 
740 and enjoyed there soothing music at the widest filter setting .  
Very nice !  Thanks Flex .   John Molenda kb2huk

Well , an update on my 5000 not showing any rf output on ssb and making 
the lights blink on cw.  For starters I opened up the case and checked 
the ribbon connection for the mic and all looked good .  I will this 
evening move the radio another 6 feet from the computer which should 
make it about 10 feet. and replace the original firewire cord with a new 
new 16footer from Granite digital I will then replace the Heil mic cord 
coming from my mic and going to the radio .   We will see tonight what 
happens. I hope some good will come of this as I  had the radio for over 
a month and have made no contacts .  John kb2huk

of course that was back when almost every Friday saw a new beta to test.
