Hi Steve, 

Over time, we will make a number of RX2 features available through software
enhancements.  To do diversity reception with the initial release, you can
hook RX1 to one antenna and RX2 to another.  You can then tune both
receivers to the same frequency adjust pan/level to provide the best signal
to noise ratio.  Future software will add more inteligence to this process
as well as the ability to notch or enhance signals.

Regards,
Gerald

Subject: [Flexradio] Second receiver & diversity reception...

I have the 2nd receiver ordered and it is coming in the first production
run.
 
What about diversity reception? The Flex home page mentions diversity
reception will be possible. I assume that means the hardware will support
it, but PowerSDR must be enhanced to support it. What are the plans for
diversity reception? How soon? That is the main reason for my order.
 
I use the MFJ-1026 noise cancellor to cancel out local noise source. A local
birdie literally wipes out reception on 7076 kHz, the 40 meter JT65A
frequency. And yes I have successfully run JT65A with WSJT on my 5000A. My
MFJ-1026 is routed through the RX1 loop, so the T/R switch is not required.
Thank you Flex! My hope is that PowerSDR & the 2nd receiver will replace the
MFJ-1026. The phasing and amplitude could be done digitally, with the
settings saved for future use.
 
Perhaps there are programmers in the Flex customer base that can write the
code for diversity reception. Certainly it is beyond my skills.
 
73,
 
Steve N6VL
