Re: [Flexradio] Mute / Squelch / Eq

2006-01-23 Thread Ahti Aintila

Willi,

Thank you for the information.
More than 30 years I have used home made clippers in the IF part of my 
all SSB transceivers with a proper audio equalizer in the microphone 
channel. I hope that SDR-1000 would give me a better digital version of 
that feature.

The following articles are worth reading:

Ahti,

The need of more equalizer channels was also discussed intensively on 
the 80 m band meeting of German SDR1k users last weekend. I heard here 
that K5SDR, Gerald, is coming to the Friedrichshafen trade show this 
year and hopefully he has time and opportunity to listen to what is 
going on here on HF bands in the old countries.


Best 73 de SM6OMH, Willi

The new EQ's are amazing,considering that they are only 3 channels.
Behringer could take a lesson for their vx2000 processor.

More TX equalizer channels needed for the optimal noise penetrating
communications quality! Our HF DX-bands are not the best place for
broadband Hi-Fi transmissions.

Re: [Flexradio] RFE BOARD QUESTION

2006-01-23 Thread Philip M. Lanese
Thanks for the response Eric.

I would think that it should be (XVTR Enabled  VHF Selected) since K12 needs
to be operated in BOTH receive and transmit in order to provide a signal path
between LPFR of the lowpass filter bank and the input/output of the 2M
transverter when one of the bands above 6M is selected for operation as opposed
to selecting operation on LF to 6M.

XVRX on the other hand, would need to follow the logic rule you gave to allow
switching out the DEMI Rx circuit on transmit.

Also, I sent you a list of Fatal Error messages I am getting on all start-ups of
Preview 12 after the first but the e-mail was refused by the flex server.

Phil, K3IB

Phil,

I am going off of memory here, but I believe the XVEN signal goes high
whenever the 12 or 13 of the following is true:

1. XVTR Enabled/Present is checked.
2. Positive logic is selected and you are in TX.
3. Negative logic is selected and you are in RX.

[Flexradio] Multi System

2006-01-23 Thread Mike Monnier
I wonder if it is possible to run a second, or more SDR 1000's from a single 
computer?


Is it possible to have two or more radios plugged into the USB ports and run 
Power SDR for each? Choosing which transceiver is active.


I'm looking at purchasing a second radio and can't afford a second, 
dedicated, computer at this time. The questions come easy but I'm fairly 
sure the answers are complicated. It might be an interesting project. 
Thanks.

I am hoping to use VAC to make the connections required to run the various
digital modes as the last step in freeing myself from my Pro-II rice box.
I say hope because, after reading the help file of VAC, it is clear to me
that this could be another learning experience that I would like to avoid.

Have any of you put together a set of instructions in plain English that
tell how to set up a typical configuration? I have the Pro-II connected to
the PC through a Rig-Blaster using the on-board sound card.  Do I need  some
sort of virtual serial connection too?  I use the M-44 sound card with the
Flex-Radio.

[Flexradio] 1 KHz tone on SSB

2006-01-23 Thread Charles Greene

Hi,

I have a 1 KHz tone on my signal when transmitting SSB. The 1KHz 
signal is about 20 dB over the noise level at that frequency.   It 
does not occur when using VAC, and it does not occur when I key using 
MOX with no mike is plugged in.  I am using a  Firebox.   When I plug 
a mike into the SDR box with a cable from the SDR box to the mike in 
on the Firebox, I get the tone when I press the PTT.  When I unplug 
the cable from the SDR box to the mike in on the Firebox, and plug in 
a different mike into the Firebox, I get the tone again, but it is 
only 10 dB over the noise level at that frequency.Set the RF 
power to 1 watt; no change.  The tone is very stable, not like RF 
feed back.  There is no test in progress.  Restart everything, no 
change.  Nothing seems unusual in the Firebox setup.  Any one have 
any suggestions?

[Flexradio] DATABASE OVERWRITE

2006-01-23 Thread Bill Nagle
If I have installed version 12 then make some changes to it and  recompile, 
when I deploy it from the compiler will it install on top of the originally 
installed 
version 12? If it does than is it smart enough to see that there is already a 
database in there and not overwrite it?

Re: [Flexradio] DATABASE OVERWRITE

2006-01-23 Thread richard allen
Bill,

If there is a database in the directory that you run from, it will 
use it else create a new one.  If you run from the ide, that will be 
either ..\bin\debug or ..\bin\release depending on what you told it 
to do.  If I have a bunch of stuff in a database that I want to keep 
safe, I'll just compy it elsewhere before I start a development cycle,
 just in case.

I do that all the time keeping the old database.  It sounds like you 
may be doing a clean as a part of the compile.  Some of the clean 
functions will completely delete the \bin folder that contains the .
mdb.
This may be part of the deploy.  I keep the deployment lines disabled 
since all I want to do is re-compile whatever I changed and then 
relink.  It is all much faster that way as long as you are not 
interested in distributing it.

Re: [Flexradio] 1 KHz tone on SSB

2006-01-23 Thread Tim Ellison
Chas,

Are you using and software based audio processing?  I was running my
signal through CuBase and as soon as I added an effect, I got a 2 KHz
spike in my audio with what best can be described as a pulsing rushing
noise.  Removing CuBase made the pulsing rushing noise go away, but the
2 KHz spike is still there.  I bought a extra shielded, ferrites on both
ends Firewire cable (1 meter) and use Hosa cables for connection to the
SDR1K.  It made no difference.

Several e-mails to Presonus has gone unanswered and I am getting rather
disgruntled over the situation.  An information only e-mail to support
was answer in 24 hours.  I have been waiting two weeks now :-(

The noise is not there with the Delta 44 card, so it is coming from
somewhere in the FireBox.

For PSK work, I just set the frequency at 1500 Hz and it is clean as a
whistle.

If I ever get an answer from Presonus, I'll let you know what they say.
