Re: [Flexradio] Flex 1500 (2010 Mac Mini latency issues)

Since you've done some research on the mac's I thought I'd ask, do you know if the nVidia 330m GPU bootcamp driver suffers from the same DPC issue? -Larry On May 30, 2011, at 6:35, Sheldon Hartling wrote: > Hi Michael > > There are some latency issues with the Windows nVidia 320M video driver

Re: [Flexradio] Flex 1500 (2010 Mac Mini latency issues)

Hi Michael There are some latency issues with the Windows nVidia 320M video driver for the 2010 Mac Mini that make it unsuitable for use as a Flex computer at the moment. This is likely the case for MacBook Pros that use the 320m and 330m GPUs as well. As James (KK6MC) mentioned, the trick to u

Re: [Flexradio] WSPR or JT-65 with my 1500?

Michael: The FLEX-1500 won't be hurt by normal digital mode operation even at full output. It's been tested to support this duty cycle. FYI, I've run WSPR quite a bit with the FLEX-1500. I actually prefer going to the LOW end of the power range. I've run paths at 56mW (Power=1) and at +3dbm (F

Re: [Flexradio] Flex 1500

Mike - I run a Flex1500 with a MacBook Pro running a 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo with Bootcamp. It handles the Flex 1500 beautifully with no compatibility problems. With Bootcamp, there is no apparent difference to a Windows machine, except it boots a lot faster. Shoot me an e-mail if you have other que

[Flexradio] Flex 1500

I am totally new to the Flex, having seen it at one hamfest. I am not a computer guy, though I am pretty competence as a ham (built a lot of stuff, never owned a commercial antenna, etc.). I recently switched here from Windows and PCs to Mac (I'm a writer), and really would prefer a mac platform if

Re: [Flexradio] Rx Audio and Mic In on Flex-1500

I'll let someone else more knowledgeable than me expalin the finer points of how the radio and PC communicate the audio but as far as playing the audio through your PC speakers, it can be done. Just run a 1/8 inch stereo jumper cord between the phones output on the 1500 and the line input on th

Re: [Flexradio] Rx Audio and Mic In on Flex-1500

I don't have 1500, but I assume they run like the others-- They put the phones and mic connections on the radio mostly for convenience. Many people like a traditional rig-type audio connection. They run the digital audio paths back to sound interface chips in the rig box to make this convenien

Thanks, Bill. My best guess is over the pole (if not true, then certainly magnetic!). I have two hex-beams, one pointed 350 and one pointed 070, both at 40 feet high. The signal was much stronger on the hex pointing north...from here in NC that's 023 degrees true...I presume that if the path wer

You should not have to purchase VAC again to get the signed version of 4.09. Eugene is usually good about responding to support requests. Make sure his e-mails are not ending up in your junk e-mail folder, as they are coming from Russia and can look like SPAM if you are using an aggressive junk

Spoke too soon. The signed version of VAC I have is a trail version. I have a paid for unsigned version so I'll need to get the test mode working again. I have yet to get Eugene to once answer a email from me. I don't think I'll re-buy just to get the signed version. On 05/29/2011 03:25 AM, St

I have the signed a version of VSPmanager I discovered. I may not need the test mode any more as I have a signed version of VAC 9.04 too. If VAC was the only thing that need the test mode I am good I guess. On 05/29/2011 02:45 AM, Michael Walker wrote: Hi Steve I'm pretty sure I don't have DD
