Re: [Flexradio] Time out?

Richard, I have had the same problem. I found a free timer that will reboot your computer at time out. I set it for 10 minutes and if I knock myself off the internet, the computer just reboots which restores control and you can then reset the SDR1000. The url is: http://www.zen85473.zen.co.

Hi Hank, The Altec Lansing VS2220 speakers have an AC input for power rather than a wall wart. They seem much better than several other systems that I have tried with respect to RFI when running high power. They are available from several places...just Google them. 73, Tom W0IVJ Lyman H

There's also a VC# way to do it, in .NET 2.0 (one reason to start looking at .NET 2.0 is that it supports real multithreaded apps (as opposed to "apartments") and things like serial ports have a much better interface. System.IO.Ports namespace has a class called SerialPort http://msdn2.microso

Agreed. I'm using my SDR-1000 with a DEM 144-28HP without the internal preamp (zero gain), coupled with a LNA Technologies CAV-144EME cavity LNA and a Lunar-Link LA-22 PA. VERY nice combo! 73, Dan KB5MY/6 DM13nc > Let me add that it is pretty hard to beat these things as a receive > system in

Hello Cecil, We specify on our website that a preselector is REQUIRED for good operation below 160m. We do NOT provide individual filters below 160m. The SDR-1000 is designed for best performance on the HF bands. It can perform well on MW if you put preselection in front of the radio and we hav

There is no magic way to determine the list of COM ports configured on your system. Registry information is optional; the *only* sure way to determine the available COM ports without disrupting any running software is to use GetDefaultCommConfig() for COM1 to COM255. If GetDefaultCommConfig() re
