Re: [Flexradio] New band freq changes
Not to drag this out, but I don't think I used the word mode. I intended to say: "where the transmitter will transmit (true) in any mode, or not (false) at all".

Joe, that is correct. However, that true/false field does not know anything about mode. It will not prevent transmitting SSB in a CW-only segment. So, if the BandText table incorrectly identifies the new SSB segments as CW, the SDR-1000 will still allow you to operate SSB there. 73, Ray, K9DUR ___ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com

Re: [Flexradio] New band freq changes
Actually Bob, that depends. If I'm not mistaken, the BandText table contains a true/false column titled Transmit, in essence identifying parts of the frequency spectrum where the transmitter will transmit (true) or not. If this is incorrect (as was erroneously the case with the 80m hole between 3700 and 3775), the transmitter won't work. 73 de Joe - AB1DO - Original Message - From: "Bob Maser" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Ray Andrews" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; ; "Craig Monsen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, December 18, 2006 19:42 Subject: Re: [Flexradio] New band freq changes > The URL doesn't work on my computer.

Re: [Flexradio] New band freq changes
Sorry about that. You are of course correct. The idea is to keep all of the data around EXCEPT for the old BandText table. There are a few options for current SVN users to bring their database up to date: #1 (easiest/loss of settings): Simply delete your PowerSDR.mdb database file from the C:\Program Files\FlexRadio Systems\PowerSDR vX.Y.Z folder. You will lose all of your settings (memories, hardware setup, calibration, etc), but you WILL have the new band descriptions. #2 (easy, requires MS Access): If you have MS Access, open the PowerSDR.mdb file mentioned above and simply delete the BandText table. The next time you start the application it will rebuild with the new data. This will preserve all of your setup and calibration. #3 (complex, requires database utility): Make a copy of your current PowerSDR.mdb file and then delete the original. Run the application in order to generate a new fresh copy of the database, then use K9DUR's database utility (available on our knowledge base) to import all tables EXCEPT the BandText table. This will give you all of your old settings + the new descriptions. For those of you not using SVN, you will need to wait until the next official release to see the descriptions for the changed bands. Note that these same set of instructions will come into play when importing databases from v1.6.2 or v1.6.3 Beta.

As written, the utility merely appends records to the destination database that are not already there and changes values in records that are already there. The program uses the primary key of the table to determine whether a record already exists in the table or not. It does not replace the destination table and does not delete any records. If you do what you suggest, you will end up with a BandText table containing both the old allocation records and the new allocation records -- NOT a good situation. Although slightly more involved, the following method WILL work: Start with a new database and then use the utility to import all of the other tables. The utility lists all of the tables it finds in the source database, so, after selecting the source (old) & destination (new) databases, all the user has to do is Control-Click on all of the tables except the BandText table and then click on Transfer Data. 73, Ray, K9DUR -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Craig, The database utility was developed on my home PC, which runs Windows XP, & was not tested with any other operating system.

My development PC is XP-based but all of the production floor PC's run Win2K. I usually have to re-compile my programs on the floor PC.

Re: [Flexradio] New band freq changes
Eric, As the author of the database import utility, I must point out that the method you suggest will not work. As written, the utility merely appends records to the destination database that are not already there and changes values in records that are already there. The program uses the primary key of the table to determine whether a record already exists in the table or not. It does not replace the destination table and does not delete any records. If you do what you suggest, you will end up with a BandText table containing both the old allocation records and the new allocation records -- NOT a good situation. Although slightly more involved, the following method WILL work: Start with a new database and then use the utility to import all of the other tables. The utility lists all of the tables it finds in the source database, so, after selecting the source (old) & destination (new) databases, all the user has to do is Control-Click on all of the tables except the BandText table and then click on Transfer Data. 73, Ray, K9DUR -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Re: [Flexradio] New band freq changes
I had forgotten to commit the database changes before I left work yesterday. They are posted in SVN Rev 787 (the front panel will still show 782). Note that you will need to start with a fresh database in order to see the new allocations. If you don't want to lose your current settings, you can use the database import utility that can be found on our knowledge base to only import the BandText table from a fresh database into your current one.

[Flexradio] New band freq changes
How does one update PowerSDR SVN:782 to reflect the new changes today?
