Allow me to caveat that idea with the following: MP3 is a perfectly acceptable audio format for plain audio (post processed, as we call it on the wave recorder). What Bob is referring to is preserving Pre-Processed IF recordings that contain much more data than just the ~3kHz coming out of the fi

John, My post was meant to be a little tough n cheek, not intended to post a problem, although true. I primarily use CW or digital ; my poor attempt was to point out the superior receiver of the Flex SDR-1000. For those reading this list that are still considering buying a Flex, still t

2006-12-21 Thread Robert McGwier
MP3 will definitely induce some ugly phase distortions. I previously recommended we use FLAC. There were some incorrect remarks made about it not compressing well. These were baseless criticisms. We use less than 1/2 of the bits most of the time in the 24 bit A/D samples so that is an imme

I think the generic answer is...any. Well, any that support floating point wave files, that is. The wave file that is created is a standard wave file that uses floating point values (instead of the typical integer values). I use Cool Edit Pro. But you could use virtually any program including A

What values are you using for the Audio Buffer and DSP Buffer? Have you optimized the FA-66 buffers in the control panel? See FA-66 Quick Start Guide on the knowledge base for details if not. Assuming that the buffers are set appropriately, these kinds of issues are nearly always related to RFI a

Mike, Read the bottom of his e-mail. He is not reporting a problem with the SDR; he is reporting a problem with all of the other rigs on the market. The receiver in the SDR-1000 outperforms everything else out there. I can copy signals rock-solid on my SDR-1000 that I cannot even hear on my F

When you run audiophile audio with the Flex it does not penetrate the QRM/QRN. When running at these conditions, you should switch the transmit profile over to a more aggressive profile that has the lows cut off and run with some processing. I am a new owner of the Flex Radio and I noticed the

Hello, This is my first posting to the list. I’m hoping that someone might have an insight into the problem I’ve encountered with my new SDR-1000. I suspect the basic issue is RFI but it seems like an extreme case--maybe something else is going on?. Any advice will be welcome. The SDR-1000 arrive

John, What kind of antenna are you using and what bands do you operate on? The SDR-1000 rx sure is fantastic, doesn't take much of an antenna at all to receive well, but on transmit could be a bit of a different story for any rig. Band conditions too have been quite poor lately. Have you tried sid

More, If I use LSB on both MixW and SDR, the frequency readout is ok. Turning VAC on lets MixW receive but no transmission. No transmission or reception with VAC off. Both of these are proper, but I will have to use DIG for any sound card digital mode. With MixW and SDR both on LSB, the au

[Flexradio] Wrong frequency readout using DIGL

GM, I usually use DIGU and MixW when operating digital modes, and the frequency readout on MixW is fine. Today, there was a RTTY station on, so I decided to use DIGL. On the SDR console, the carrier is set to 7074.805 and on MixW it is set to 7077.000, an offset of 2.095 KHz. MixW and SDR a
