I have been active on the satellites lately with my Flex-5000 using
external transverters. PowerSDR version 2.6.4.
I have noticed an error in the PA Info display, Ctrl-Shift-I, when I am
in mode B and transmit is enabled. The Temp: will read very unusual
temperatures, i.e. 572, intermittently for a moment. Values change, but
seem to be repetitive. I have seen large negative F values also. The
Voltage: also reads 0 briefly sometimes.The radio appears to function
normally when this occurs.
This occurs even if the TX Drive is set to 0.
I am running SatPC32 V.12.8b to control the uplink and downlink
frequencies using x10 Speed. The problem seems to only occur when CAT is
enabled on SatPC32.
This seems like a conflict between variables used by PowerSDR's CAT
control and the PA Info routines.
Is anyone else using a Flex-5000 seeing this?
