Precisely. It would be nice if there was a clear indication of the
center of the signal.
I've been following this thread and I'm confused. When I have fldigi
running and the dial frequency set to 3589 (for example), the
waterfall
shows 3589 to 3591.5 (the way I have it set up). If I click on,
for example, 3590, *that* is the center of the signal. 3590 also show
in the 'QSO Freq' box to the right of the 'broom' indicator. So there
are 2 indications of the center of the signal.
What am I missing in your conversation?
Nothing. I am just suggesting that the large frequency display in the
upper-left-hand corner of the fldigi frame is not of much use when
displaying VFO frequency. It is duplicate information.
It is NOT JUST a display. It is a control entry and it is designed
mimic what occurs at the transceiver when the user moves the vfo dial.
The transceiver vfo dial, the frequency entry control in flrig and the
frequency entry control in fldigi all annunciate the same data value.
The only time it does not is in CW mode on some transceivers like the K3.
Having it display the center of the emitted signal is far more useful.
The information at the top of the waterfall is quite useful but does
not display the frequency to 1Hz resolution. The QSO Freq field has
the information one needs but that would be better displayed in the
main frequency display.
BTW this has been the modus operandi for as long as fldigi has been a
public application. It is understood my 99.99% of the user base. I do
not intend to change it, but you are free to make whatever change suits
your needs and create a separately maintained branch of the code.
