Hi John

Just been working a bunch on EME using my 1500 & DEMI Xvtr, let me have 
a copy of your settings so we can compare notes again.

This finally makes WSJT EME ops at my station a reality now.

Dear FlexRadio customers:


FlexRadio is pleased to announce the availability of PowerSDR v2.0.19
Release Candidate 1 (RC1) for public download from our website.  This
version incorporates a totally new CW keying architecture that was 
written
from the ground up to achieve minimum jitter and latency using both 
internal

and external keyers.   To say this is a rewrite is a bit of an
understatement.  We got out Farnsworth and started from "dit."  
Everything

is right now in "PARIS."


We have also done significant work since the v2.0.16 beta release to 
improve

installation and overall out of box experience on all radios.  We have
optimized the USB driver for the FLEX-1500 to perform well on a wide 
range
of PC platforms.  We have also incorporated a new FireWire driver 
with less
CPU overhead on Windows 7 systems.  The number of little and not so 
little
bug fixes are too numerous to mention here.  Check out the change log 
and
release notes.  A note about release notes, PLEASE READ the them to 
get the

most from your FlexRadio.


The URL for the release notes is:

http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=359



The URL for the installer software is:

http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=358



We are very excited about v2.0.19 RC1 as we enter the final steps 
toward the

PowerSDR v2.0.x Official Release.  We thank you for your patience and
support while we have been preparing this important release.  We 
request you

report any bugs found in this release to the bug tracker at
http://support.flexradio.com/BugList.aspx?it=b.  Be sure to note 
2.0.19 RC1
in the Software Product Version field as we will be focusing our 
attention

on those specific reports.



We would like to say a special thanks to our beta team for their 
tireless

support in testing a number of interim releases to get here.


We are taking the weekend off but 2.1 starts on Monday.  In the software
world it is never finished.

Re: [Flexradio] Announcing PowerSDR(TM) v2.0.19 RC1 Release Candidate

2011-02-18 Thread Paul Mandel 
Gerald:

Only one conflict found with an easy fix.  If you are running the
Plantronics USB driver the new Flex install will conflict.  However the fix
is to unplug the power to the base of the USB headset and then reinsert the
USB connection.  It will not find the connection with the base plugged into
the external adaptor.   This model is the CS50-USB.

Re: [Flexradio] Announcing PowerSDR(TM) v2.0.19 RC1 Release Candidate

2011-02-18 Thread Jim Jannuzzo 

Gerald and the Gang,
The RC installed easily, without any intervention.  All steps performed as 
they should.
NR / NB algorithms are beautiful in my extensive 27 minute testing period. 
They function invisibly, until you turn them off.  Signals jump out of the 
noise, and the reduction in noise is comforting to the ear.
I found nothing amiss (note length of my testing period mentioned above), 
which is really good.  I left the default skin up (rather than my previous 
favorite), just to remind myself that

I have a new radio again.
I can't help myself;  with a radio like this it's easy to remain a Flex 
FanBoi.

Congratulations on the result of a lot of hard work.
Jim KJ2P

Dear FlexRadio customers:


FlexRadio is pleased to announce the availability of PowerSDR v2.0.19
Release Candidate 1 (RC1) for public download from our website.  This
version incorporates a totally new CW keying architecture that was written
from the ground up to achieve minimum jitter and latency using both internal
and external keyers.   To say this is a rewrite is a bit of an
understatement.  We got out Farnsworth and started from "dit."  Everything
is right now in "PARIS."


We have also done significant work since the v2.0.16 beta release to improve
installation and overall out of box experience on all radios.  We have
optimized the USB driver for the FLEX-1500 to perform well on a wide range
of PC platforms.  We have also incorporated a new FireWire driver with less
CPU overhead on Windows 7 systems.  The number of little and not so little
bug fixes are too numerous to mention here.  Check out the change log and
release notes.  A note about release notes, PLEASE READ the them to get the
most from your FlexRadio.


The URL for the release notes is:

http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=359



The URL for the installer software is:

http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=358



We are very excited about v2.0.19 RC1 as we enter the final steps toward the
PowerSDR v2.0.x Official Release.  We thank you for your patience and
support while we have been preparing this important release.  We request you
report any bugs found in this release to the bug tracker at
http://support.flexradio.com/BugList.aspx?it=b.  Be sure to note 2.0.19 RC1
in the Software Product Version field as we will be focusing our attention
on those specific reports.



We would like to say a special thanks to our beta team for their tireless
support in testing a number of interim releases to get here.


We are taking the weekend off but 2.1 starts on Monday.  In the software
world it is never finished.


Warmest 73s,


Gerald

Re: [Flexradio] Announcing PowerSDR(TM) v2.0.19 RC1 Release Candidate

2011-02-18 Thread Tim (W4TME) 
I would like to add a few helpful hints for running PowerSDR v2.0.19 RC1 
that might make your installation go a bit smoother.


1.) Read the release notes.  Seriously, it is a best practice.

2.) You do NOT have to uninstall a previous version of PowerSDR before 
installing PowerSDR v2.0.19 RC1


3.) PowerSDR v2.0.19 RC1 will automatically update the firmware on your 
radio.  Allow it to finish completely and reboot the radio when prompted 
(FLEX-1500).  Power cycling the FLEX-x000 after a firmware update is 
always a best practice (you will have to shut down PowerSDR 2.0.19 RC1 
first).


4.) This release has a new Firewire driver.  You may experience 
distorted audio the first time you start PowerSDR due to the sampling 
not not getting initialized properly.  If this is the case, toggling the 
Start button usually clears it up.


In 99% of the time, the new Firewire driver will install properly with 
PowerSDR v2.0.19 RC1, but if you want to be sure that it installs 
without any issues, it is recommended that you uninstall the Firewire 
driver before installing PowerSDR v2.0.16.  To do this..


a.) Power off your FLEX-x000 SDR
b.) Open Windows Control Panel
c.) Click on the "Add or Remove Programs" or Programs and Features".
d.) Uninstall any and all programs that looks like "FlexRadio 
3.x.y.abcd" where x.y.abcd is the version number (do not uninstall PowerSDR)

e.) reboot your PC
f.)  Install PowerSDR v2.0.16 (preferably using the defaults) following 
the user prompts


5.) If upgrading from PowerSDR 1.x to PowerSDR 2.0.16, it is STRONGLY 
recommended that you do not do a database import, but allow PowerSDR to 
create a new database and manually reconfigure it.


6.) If using the K9DUR Data Transfer tool to import a pre 2.0.19 RC1 
database, it is highly recommended that you do not import the state 
table.  PowerSDR 2.0.19 has a lot of new default database parameters 
located in various tables and importing a pre 2.0.19 RC1 database may 
overwrite those new parameters making the operation pf PowerSDR 2.0.19 
RC1 inconsistent.  If you observe any inconsistencies, reset your 
database and configure it manually.


7.) The previous configuration you had setup for CW will most likely not 
be optimal with the new CW enhancements.  You may want to re-setup CW 
using smaller audio buffers, different sampling rates and break-in values.
