Re: [Flexradio] Question about TX harmonics

Mark, I no longer have your original message, but if the "spur" was 1.2 kHz as I recall, I'm wondering if you have a local AM broadcast station which may have mixed in your final. I have seen sum and difference products from local transmitters mixing in a transmitter result in "spurs".

Regarding the freeze... its called DPC or Delayed Procedure Call. Most likely one or more sound devices are not set to the same sampling rate as the others. The fix is easy (if its caused by sound devices sampling), just set all the audio devices, including VAC, speakers, audio in, line in,

Another thing to check / verify; make sure all audio devices are running the same sampling rate and depth i.e 2 channel, 16 bit, 48,000 Hz. Mismatches with VAC and sound cards WILL cause significant DPCs (Delayed Procedure Calls). 73 DX, Gary - AB9M -Original Message- From:

David, the subject of annual charge for the software for the 6xxx series radios crossed my mind too. While an annual fee to make the high-end radio work might not be a deal breaker for those who buy the top of the line FLEX radio, I can see a possible challenge for/from those who buy the the

Noise is probably from the power supply driving the LEDs... other LCD monitors use fluorescent tubes as the light source behind the LCD and of course fluorescent tubes and their power supplies can be excellent noise sources. I use a TimeWave ANC-4 to knock down the local (shack) electrical

You may notice significant reduction in signal strength when using the K9AY Loop System. You will also notice a significant improvement in the signal to noise ratio. I have found that DX signals which are marginal copy on the TX antenna ( a vertical ) are solid copy on the K9AY Loop System.

You cannot pass any of the high end frequencies of the PR40. If your transmission BW is 2.5 kHZ, and the low frequency roll off is 200 Hz, the high end frequency to be transmitted is 2700 Hz. Everything from 3000 Hz to 16000 Hz is left in the mic cable. Still it’s a nice microphone if you
