Re: [Flexradio] SSB Tx Audio Punch

2008-01-05 Thread ON9CDY
Ian,

I do have the same problem. The audio punch is gone after SVN1836. It looks
like a change has been made to the voice processing routine to avoid a
potential PA overdrive but that diminished the SSB average power
significantly. If you are using the Tortoise you can always roll back to a
version number you'd want to. I did exactly that, have rolled back to
SVN1836 and stopped updating since then. This problem has been reported on
the reflector a while back but I guess nothing has been done to correct it.
I wish we could follow the new SVN updates but it looks like if we want to
keep the SSB punch we will have to stick to SVN1836 for the time being.

Thanks, Alex (OP8Y)

Please can anyone else confirm whether they are having audio punch problems
on SSB, the problem seems to have occurred since the SVN upgrade on or
around 1840. I did put a bug up on the board but this seems to have been

how wide spread it is.

Re: [Flexradio] SSB Tx Audio Punch

2008-01-05 Thread John P Basilotto W5GI
I'm really perplexed by these posts. I am using SVN 1875.  ALC was added
ahead of the audio chain to prevent distortion and overdrive; however, a DX
button was added to increase the CPDR range.  A 15-25% increase in audio
processing is possible giving the FlexRadio incredible talk power.   Try it,
I think you'll be impressed.   The CPDR slider controls the DX processing
level.

Re: [Flexradio] SSB Tx Audio Punch

2008-01-05 Thread Ahti Aintila
On 05/01/2008, Greg - ZL3IX [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 I am still using a very old SVN with my HPSDR, so have not experienced
 these recent problems.  Personally, I am in favour of using the envelope
 tracker, which I believe is implemented in COMP, rather than CPDR.  The
 envelope tracker seems to be the closest we get to analogue RF clipping,
 which is still my favourite.  I do not like companding, as it is very
 difficult to obtain enough compression without introducing harmonic
 distortion, which detracts from intelligibility on DX contacts.

 I am toying with the idea of not using any compression with PowerSDR,
 and using an outboard RF clipper, either analogue RF, or possibly the
 software version by Alex, VE3NEA.  Unfortunately, my own coding skills
 are not adequate, or I would be writing a DSP version of an RF clipper
 myself, and offering it to the project.  Does anyone with better skills
 than mine feel like trying that?

 73, Greg, ZL3IX

Greg,

Unfortunately I am in the same situation with you - no software
skills. Since early 70's I'm using so called RF clipper (home built)
in the IF chain of all Japanese transceivers I have had. So far some
earlier and short transmitting trials have not made me convinced about
the correct function of the SSB process of the PowerSDR, so I have
refused to use otherwise so excellent SDR-1000 for transmitting. I
want to admit, that during the last few months I have not tried any
new SVNs.

However, after some private communication with John, W5GI, I believe
that FlexRadio finally understands what kind of DX-sound we need and
want. Maybe, SVN1875 already is good. I am still waiting that the
version will be reasonably bugfree and suggested settings will be
given with good explanations in the Knowledge Base.

Just some more patience and FlexRadio will do that!

Re: [Flexradio] SSB Tx Audio Punch

2008-01-05 Thread Greg - ZL3IX
What I am about to write may not be very popular, and I am likely to be 
shot down in flames.  Please believe me that I mean no offence, and 
would just like to share an opinion that has been developed over many 
years of HF SSB operation, both on the amateur bands and on military HF 
comms circuits.

While the new SDR world brings many huge advantages to the radio 
experimenter, we must be very careful not to throw the baby out with the 
bath water when we discard analogue techniques.  IMO, the speech 
processing area represents the very crown jewels of an HF radio 
transmitter, as it is critical to the overall operation of the radio.  I 
therefore believe that developers should be very careful when they 
tinker in this area, and such work should not be undertaken lightly.  
Before presenting new code for evaluation, the following bench testing 
should be done.  (On the air testing is VERY time consuming, and 
requires contacts under the right propagation conditions which are not 
always available)

Test 1.

Adjust the OUTPUT level on the UUT (unit under test) to give the 
required peak output power while whistling into the mic  Use an average 
reading power meter.  Then say aargh into the mic, and adjust the 
INPUT level for half of this power.  Eg, 100W indicated for a whistle, 
and 50W for aargh.  Then go back to the whistle if necessary, and 
re-adjust the OUTPUT for 100W.  Iterate as necessary to achieve both 
these results.  For an RF clipper, this represents approximately 15 dB 
of clipping.  If this 2:1 power ratio cannot be achieved, then the UUT 
fails the first test.  Note the input level for the whistle using a scope.

Test 2.

Using an audio signal generator at a frequency of 700 Hz, feed in the 
same level into the UUT as the mic was giving for a whistle.  Do NOT 
adjust the input or output levels of the UUT.  Check the output of the 
radio on a spectrum analyser, and ensure that the products at 1400 Hz 
and 2100 Hz offset are at least 30 dB down.  This can also be done at 
some intermediate test point if available.

If both the above tests pass, then it is worth while to try some on air 
testing.

The other parameter that affects on air intelligibility is audio 
frequency response.  The mic itself should peak at about 1 kHz (eg Shure 
444), and there should be ADDITIONAL electronic pre-emphasis with a time 
constant of about 160 us.  This gives a roll-off below 1 kHz of 6 dB per 
octave.

Many operators (especially the AM HiFi bunch) will hate what I have 
said, but under difficult weak signal conditions, a radio performing as 
above will give the most intelligible signal.  From a performance point 
of view, it really doesn't matter whether this is achieved by analogue 
processing external to the radio, or internally in DSP.  The result will 
be the same if the correct principles are followed.  In my experience, 
it is very difficult to achieve these results with processing performed 
at baseband.  Envelope tracking comes the closest.  In principle they 
are easier to achieve with IF/RF processing.

Ian, check your MIC level-you may have to increase your mixer or MIC levels.
You should achieve between -5 and 0dB on the MIC meter, regardless of Drive
level. For additional punch try using the CPDR. The latest SVN software has
an exceptionally good feature the DX control which will increase your
processing level by at least 10 dB for exceptional punch
