[Flexradio] FLDIGI soundcard settings.

Hi folks, I have VAC 4.11 working. No problems now. The soundcard settiings for FLDIGI show AUTO, and a range of other sample rate settings. Should I set fldigi to AUTO or 48000? Cheers, Dave ___ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radi

Silly me! When I uninstalled VAC 4.09, Windows reset the defaults on the VAC lines to 44.1 KHz. After I switched them back to 48KHz, the spectrum went back to normal. Jim KA2RVO On Thu, Mar 15, 2012 at 10:24 PM, James Austin wrote: > Hi Dave, > > I noticed this as well. Have not figured out ho

[Flexradio] VAC 4.11 on WinXP

Hi, I installed VAC 4.11 and noticed multiple images of the digital transmission was appearing in the TX Filter. I setup according to the flex instructions. So I have deleted 4.11 and returned to 4.09. Has anyone else noticed this? Regards Dave.

This is just idle speculation, but I'll guess that the headphone amp is single-ended, so uses a fairly large coupling cap for good bass response with low-impedance headphones. Large coupling cap = big "pop" when first plugging the cans in. Again, idle speculation but if someone with a service

The new driver uses a streaming architecture rather than an interrupt / DPC architecture. This ensures that VAC transfers the bit-perfect audio stream between PowerSDR and your third-party sound card based application more efficiently and doesn't drop audio buffers like previous versions. Ti

Here is the deal. We need to publish a set of parameters compatible with all of our radios, so the lowest common denominator is the FLEX-1500 which runs at 48 kHz. So we are going to maintain that the default sampling rate for the VAC cable from a Windows perspective is 48kHz. PowerSDR will
