[Flexradio] Old ATU problem

2011-08-27 Thread John Vandenberg
With the release of V2.2.2, I had hoped that this problem got resolved, but no luck! I believe some time ago it was stated that the problem of ATU settings by band got fixed (forgot what version). Can someone please verify... Hardware F5K/RX2/V/U V2.1.5. 2.2.2 Try this: - Database Factory

In listening to the rig just now it almost seems like the background hiss is too quite. Also I could see a CW signal i n PSDR but there was nothing showing for a CW sig in SKimmer. Weird. Anyways, here are my settings. Zack N8FNR ___ PC OS  XP SP3

I use WDM-KS for almost all installations and usually the RX gain for VAC is -10 to -8 or so. Also make sure spike Repression is not turned on! On Sat, Aug 27, 2011 at 3:46 PM, Dave Beumer WØDHB d...@w0dhb.net wrote: Have you tried WDM driver ? I'm using that and Cwskimmer is decoding fine.

Neal Spike Repression ? Is that in PowerSDR or CWSkimmer ? Do you know how to view more than a 24kz bandwidth ? I remember seeing a solution a while back . Dave From: Neal Campbell [mailto:abrohamn...@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, August 27, 2011 1:54 PM To: Dave Beumer WØDHB Cc:

Its the SR button in PSDR below the pan adapter and VFOA (in the group with NB, NB2, etc) You can drag the Skimmer window to expose more frequencies, have you tried that?? 73 On Sat, Aug 27, 2011 at 4:30 PM, Dave Beumer WØDHB d...@w0dhb.net wrote: Neal ** ** Spike Repression ? Is that

I doubt this is defined as a problem that prevents people from operating, or that it is considered a problem at all. You change band, obviously the tune established for one band is not the same, so it goes into bypass, as that would be better than transmitting into a tune setup for another

I unchecked combine VAC channels and unchecked use RX2. Also changed the audio driver in PSDR and Skimmer to WDM-KS. Changed RX gain for VAC –9.   None of these improved decode.   Zack - Original Message - From: Tim Ellison, W4TME t...@flex-radio.com To:

Zack, I just configured my 5000 identically to the info you provided (except for the two changes I recommended) and it is decoding fine. Here is a dumb question. You don't have CW Skimmer in Blind mode do you? -Tim --- Tim Ellison, W4TME Product Management, Sales Support FlexRadio Systems™

It was not in blind mode. Never tried that be fore but when I put it in blind mode all decoding s topped. I am starting to lean towards removing PSDR, VAC (I know that there are special instructions to remove VAC BTW), DDUTIL, the Flex driver and Skimmer, rebooting and reinstalling all.
