Re: [digitalradio] Re: SDR-Radio.com
Thanks Ed, I will have to take another look at their web page, looks interesting. Andy K3UK On 9/7/09, ed_hekman ehek...@cox.net wrote: Andy, I built a Softrock RXTX V6.3 earlier this year. It does take some reading to understand what is offered and what is required/available for each kit. It is not really a business - the guys design the radios and offer the kits for little more than the cost of the parts. I think it is mostly the work of Tony Parks, KB9YIG. Limited runs are made of each kit depending on the interest. Briefly here is what is available: - Softrock Lite II - single band receiver - IF Special Softrock Lite - IF panadapter kit - You specify the IF frequency of your radio. - Softrock V9.0 Lite - All band receiver with plugin front end filters for each band. Also includes an Si570 digital VFO that can be controlled through a USB port or 1 of 16 preprogrammed frequencies can be selected with 4 dip switches. There is also an electronically switched BPF filter board and a 6M/2M converter kit available for this receiver. - Softrock RXTX V6.3 transceiver - All band transceiver with 4 sets of plugin BPF modules/PAs to cover all bands from 160 to 10 meters. Output power is less than 1 watt. This includes the Si570 digital VFO with 16 preprogrammed frequencies. A USB to I2C converter is available to control the Si570 VFO through a USB port. Other people offer stand-alone controllers for the Si570. I bought the one from Kees, K5BCQ ( http://www.qsl.net/k5bcq/Kits/Kits.html). There was a motherboard (MoBo 3.6) for it that held the PA and all the BPF modules and had electronic switching but that is no longer available. The next version, MoBo 4.3, will be available later this year. Others offer PAs to boost the power up to 5 watts, 20 - 40 watts or even 100 watts. Software that I am aware of includes: - Rocky 3.6 - Transceiver with PSK capability - single line text display, no macros or logging but it is the easiest to set up. I made several PSK QSOs with Rocky. - SDRadio - receive only - WinRad - receive only - KGKSDR - transceiver - I couldn't get this to work. - PowerSDR from Flex-Radio - The most powerful and complex to set up. - MultiPSK - It has an SDR front-end. This can do all the MultiPSK digital modes with an SDR radio. I hope this helps relieve a little of the confusion. Ed WB6YTE

Re: [digitalradio] Multipsk Help Files - Vista
Hello Tony, Here is a solution to this generic Windows problem: The problem with downloaded .CHM files is caused by Windows. Whenever a .CHM file is downloaded from the Internet, Windows considers it to be a security risk and blocks it from being executed. You can clear this block as follows: 1. Use Windows Explorer (or My Computer, or My Documents) to find the file in your file system. 2. Right-click on the file with your mouse. 3. A pop-up menu will appear. The very last entry in the menu is Properties. Click on this menu item. 4. You will now see a dialog box titled (filename).chm Properties (where (filename) is replaced by the name of the file). If the file has been blocked by Windows, then near the bottom of this dialog box you will see the following: Security: This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer. To the right of this message there will be a button called Unblock. Click on this button. The file should now start working. You will have to repeat this procedure every time you download a new version of the .CHM file. 73 Patrick - Original Message - From: Tony d...@optonline.net To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, September 08, 2009 9:52 AM Subject: [digitalradio] Multipsk Help Files - Vista All, Running Vista and having difficulty displaying Multipsk help files.
