[Flexradio] Sub RX Audio
I have seem to have lost the audio to my sub receiver. I can see it active in the Panadapter. ESC is turned off. Both mutes are off, as are the squelch's. I've play with all 3 balance sliders and all 3 volume sliders (or is it 4) and I can't seem to hear the audio from the Sub RX. This has to be something obvious, or do I see a data base reset in my future? mike va3mw ___ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flexradio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flexradio.com/
[Flexradio] Sub RX
Has anybody noticed AGC behavior in the SubRX different from the main rcvr on SDR-X svn 1139?

Re: [Flexradio] Sub RX toggle Key and Sub RX Volume
There are two vertical sliders in the Sub RX section. The one on the left controls the Main RX volume while the one on the right controls the Sub RX volume. Note that these are not active unless the Sub RX is active. When it is active, the controls combine with the overall AF control (i.e. if you set the Main RX to mid and the Sub RX to mid and the AF to the mid point, you would get 25% (0.5*0.5) of the max audio output. Conceptually, the AF is an overall gain control in all cases. The other two controls are to enable you to manipulate the main/Sub RX audio independently when Sub RX is active.

Re: [Flexradio] Sub RX toggle Key and Sub RX Volume
Joe, The problem with the having a single slider distribute the gains is that you need a calibration point to set equal gains on main and sub, or else a means to turn the distribution feature off. Otherwise you will spend an inordinate amount of time trying to balance the gains when you want near or precisely equal gains on both. I don't really see any advantages to distributing the gains; if there are some please tell me. The advantage of having precisely equal gains on both is to be able to measure signal strength on one and relate that to signal strength on the other when using third party software that uses a spectrum display, such as MixW. The feature of having two gain controls works now. The only hang up I have with the two gain controls is the main gain control is positioned under Sub receiver where the sub receiver gain control should be positioned under sub receiver. 73, Chas W1CG At 07:31 PM 1/5/2007, Joe - AB1DO wrote: Here's an alternative idea.

Re: [Flexradio] Sub RX toggle Key and Sub RX Volume
Hello All: As input comes in from other's, it is apparent that different folks use the dual receive function for different things and have different but equally important priorities for this features use. For myself, my priority is when working a DX pile up to be able to hear the stations that the DX is working when running split. I want the capability to be to control the ratio of Main RX and Sub RX volume. This volume ratio or distribution could vary depending on the size and amplitude of the pileup that the strength of the DX station. This could be accomplished by the Main/Sub balance slider method, or the use of two volume controls. One volume control for the Main RX and one for the Sub RX. In the interest of functionality and flexibility I guess I would favor the 2 volume control approach. I'm running version 1.9.0 (803). In this version the Sub RX volume control in the Sub RX panel does not control the Sub RX volume. If this were changed so that the Sub RX volume control actually controlled Sub RX volume, that would be great. If this revision was made, one could independently adjust the Main and Sub Rx audio outputs. I think this would allow Chas to do what he wanted to do with the digital modes, yet offer the flexibility for other uses, to include the working of DX. Just my 2 cents worth.

Re: [Flexradio] Sub RX toggle Key and Sub RX Volume
Joe, That is an excellent idea, and the application extends beyond the ham bands. I know I'd make regular use of the slider to chase down and identify parallel outlets in the broadcast band, such as the multiple NHK and NHK2 (Japan) frequencies, or the Aussie ABC national/regional stations. On a good morning they pop up all over the dial when DXing from the Washington coast. I hear the stronger ones from home, but it takes the coastal location and a Beverage or K9AY to get them by the dozens.

Re: [Flexradio] Sub RX
I like the Sub Rx. The pan sliders are proper Left and Right orientation here. I take the Delta 44 output and feed it into an old high-end Hi-Fi receiver. For dual receive, I can put one pan on Left and the other pan on Right, depending on which speaker is closer to the displayed signal. I can use the balance control on the Hi-Fi receiver to give me relative loudness and mute. Headphones plug into the receiver, no Delta 44 loading. I bought some huge, old, high-end speakers at a thrift store for $25 and the audio is just terrific. Thrift stores are an excellent source. Just bring a DVM to check out the voice coils and be sure to look for rotting cones or crushed diaphragms. For communications mode, just crank back the bass and treble.

Re: [Flexradio] Sub RX-split?
Split mode is working as best as I can tell. There was a problem with Split + XIT that will be fixed in SVN 684, but other than this, I could not find a problem. It will still show up near the 0 Hz line. Perhaps that is throwing some people off.

Volume of sub rx is very, very low. Is there a way to bring it up ?

Re: [Flexradio] Sub RX-split?
When I chose split, and I pressed the MOX button, the frequency across the grid did not change and the power spectrum for the transmitted voice had carrier at zero frequency. Either we change the frequency readings across the top (which are incorrect when the MOX button is pushed and we are in split) or we have the green box on transmit.

Re: [Flexradio] Sub RX
Very, very, very cool indeed! Sitting here monitoring the Coast Guard on 8.983 and the Air Force on 8.992 at the same time! Now, just need a second squelch for the sub band and maybe a second mute or perhaps a AF balance control...and I'm sure you guys are working on such as I type. Thanks!

Once upon a time there were independent gain settings for each RX, then there weren't. They slipped through the cracks back when the supreme goal was to normalize the gain through the entire RX path, and the issue was moot since nothing was enabled under Windows. They were reconstructed today, however, and should be back in operation in due course. 73 Frank AB2KT ___ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com
Re: [Flexradio] Sub RX
The dual RX is great! Thank you to the team and individuals working on all these enhancements. Will be very useful indeed for breaking a CW DX pile-up working split! Sure sounds nice. The effect is best with headphones, I think. My SDR-1000 is a whole week and 124 cw qso's old. Already have seen great enhancements. Can't do that with other rigs out there. It just keeps getting better and better!.
