Re: [FlexEdge] Wish List Items for HRD
Well, I should agree with every item here written. Starting from
standardization of whatever could be standardized by us at ours level.
IF anything could be done better why not.
But, not to be silly, I should say that those ancient features that have
made the sound of ours activity may remain the same or better
implemented since V 0.001 of anything new. At least with a clear road
map to a new implementation.
What's is scaring me it's to loose all those nifty and pretty
perspective of use we have today inside ours main applications.
I couldn't live without all the automation tasks that are built or
buildable in N1MM, all the control that are inside MTTY (even the
surging TPF, the great set of demodulator with all theirs
parameterizations ) nor without the HRD-Logger and HRD Utilities or
DM780 for exotics digital modes. All simple but effective, not to say
how many hours of work all ours friends have spend making and shaping
all those things ...
All those things and more other that I forgot to write here but I use
every day or every time I am in needs, are to be maintained and
reimplemented trough the winds of changes that, I strongly hope, we are
facing.
Let alone ad forget those silly RS232 port or PC audio interfaces it's a
meritorious perspectives. Forget and sink all the timing issues having
not to deal forth and back not usefully with those device drivers,
gibberish.
But, as several things things are already in place and working there
must be a path to have it in a new and well integrated "from RF to LoTW"
and back, just as example.
This path is out of any proposed standardization, it will be, it must
be, a cooperative workmanship all around ours HAM SDR/Loggers stuffs.
So, please don't forget that out of the markets there are things that
work and that doesn't work for us HAM. About this I remember that some
of the SDR RX are nice, but all the syncs and automation task are still
under development after years. Why for the hell I need to set my filters
preferences by hands each time without a CAT command or even without the
way to send all those commands I need. SDR look like radio without
buttons and knobs, but just because somebody needs these it's not the
right way to implements just the picture of it, without "software"
commands for it (i.e.).
This is my cry, I know that I will stay tied with VSPE, VAC and other
bits and pieces for a LOT. Software is really the stone on the road to
SDR usage. All the mimics of the last world are shorting the time for
the new world.
We will see ... thanks for reading, in the hope that my non native
English was clear enough.
