The preamp on my new SDR1000 seems to be behaving strangely.
As I tune up or down a band the preamp is as per the front panel
setting. Then, at some point as I tune, it switches itself off (there's
a click inside the box when it happens). The setting for the pre-amp on

Does this mean that CAT is then not available to be used in conjunction
with digital mode or logging programs? It seems to me that there ought
to be a way to route CAT data to both a virtual serial port and a real
serial port, but I can't see how to do it.

It's a small matter of programming. At the moment the PowerSDR code only

Along with vCOM it will allow you to run CAT to any/multiple of the

I have the same problem also.
I believe it has to do with the database and the new dual receive
capability.
If you delete your current database it will start up and then
you will have to set up a new one.

That is the fix. Rename your current DB to something else. Start up
SVN 688 and import you database from 687. I had to stop and restart SVN
688 after the import for the Panadapter to work properly, but it works.

I'm sorry, I apologize, I got a lemon of a radio, and the manufacturer
is not interested in fixing it, must be my fault somehow.

May I suggest using an external keyer. I am more comfortable using an

For many months I used an external electronic
keyer with its own monitor and turned the monitor
on the SDR-1000 off. Worked fine. Then the
software guys improved the Iambic keyer, so I put
the external keyer away. Looks like I will need
to bring it back until the SDR-1000 keyer gets
fixed

Of all the things that should be child's play and totally configurable

Hello Dave,
John beat me to it, but I'll still pass along my comments and a suggestion.
I've been using the SDR-1000 for almost 2 years now on cw. Although I'm
not certain, I believe that the SDR1K keyer is Iambic mode B. I've been
a cw op for over 40 years now, and I have strong opinions

I did some more work on this and found the issue was

Here's an interesting question.
Today, if you wanted to add a new modulation scheme to PowerSDR, it
would involve recompiling (or at the minimum re-linking) and creating
a new EXE file.
But what should it be in the future?
