Re: [Flexradio] Flex 1500 Panadapter

Good idea. Lots of people were unhappy that CW did not show up on the panadapter during transmit because of the way we did it before the guys in Texas rewrote the whole thing. I neither want nor desire to see it on the screen with the exception of looking at the keying sidebands during adjustment

Re: [Flexradio] I'm a fledgling Flexer

What the other two excellent posts didn't say is this: Most digital modes are created by audio fed to the transceiver in some scheme. It isn't normally the job of the transceiver to interpret it during reception, audio is received and fed to a separate program for decoding. Likewise transmission

[Flexradio] Audio for CW Decoder

Is there any way to have my cake and eat it too? I am trying to use CW Decoder to listen to and decode CW. It requires an audio input to either the mic or right or left line in of the computer.I would also sometimes like to listen to SSB using the powered speaker out port on the back of

Re: [Flexradio] I'm a fledgling Flexer

Brian, Let the left-over New Year's cheer let me get REALLY technical for a moment. Theoretically, you are correct in stating that FSK & AFSK are identical. I have made this same point myself on many occasions. However, in real-world situations, they are not identical -- they can be distingui

[Flexradio] Voltage drop?

Flex 5K, PowerSDR 2.0.16. I have just noticed that although a DVM across the power supply terminals still shows 13.7 - 13.8 volts when I do key-down into a dummy load, Ctrl-Shift-I in PowerSDR shows the voltage dropping as low as 12.6. Is this OK? Nothing but a set of Anderson PowerPoles bet

[Flexradio] New FlexRadioWiki article on Diversity Reception

I have just finished a how-to article on using both receivers in the Flex 5000 to achieve both non-coherent diversity reception and phase-coherent diversity reception (beam-steering). See http://FlexRadioWiki.com/index.php?DiversityReception. Please check it out and provide feedback or make chang

[Flexradio] RF Feedback

I am having some RF / Audio distortion and Feedback on higher bands (above 20m) Very difficult to isolate, tried ferrites on the firewire and audio cables, Other HF radios (IC7800 and TS2000) don't seem to suffer from the problem. Has there been any procedure documented to track this down? Seem

Re: [Flexradio] Audio for CW Decoder

Brian, I appreciate the response.There is always more to learn. If I had thought a bit more about what the virtual cables were part of, then I likely would not have asked the dumb question that led to me simply turning on the VAC. Oh well, perhaps someone else benefited from my questi

Re: [Flexradio] RF Feedback follow up info

Thanks, Dave. That helps. Connect the FLEX-5000 to a dummy load and see if you hear the distortion on another radio. If you don't (which is what I suspect), then you most likely have common mode RF currents on the coax connected to the F5K unless your shack in in the near field of the antenna

Would it be possible to get whoever maintains these flex mail lists to add a link to the wiki in the material that appears at the bottom of the email messages? I know I should bookmark it an in fact I have bit I read email from multiple computers and it always seems like I don't have the link
