OK Dan, I understand. Much has to do with the software. The latest versions of Power-SDR are pretty good in this aspect (and not only that :-) ) Mine opinion: The gain must not become to high when there is no signal, the RF gain control should limit the gain to a maximum (not act as

Dan, It's funny that I was thinking about this very issue this weekend while driving to Boston from NYC. What about having the Squelch control track the background noise level and open the audio above a certain threshold (noise +5-10db?) Would a tracking squelch control provide the desired "quiet

Hi Guy, You are right, the non-inertial agc is not a panacea, there are situations that require a different type of gain control. One good example is ragchewing: when there is no need to hear weak signals, one may prefer to have a slow agc that masks the noise completely in the presence of a st

Hi Dan, The noise-driven AGC is implemented in the Rocky program, its description is available at (http://www.dxatlas.com/rocky/). The noise floor is estimated in the frequency domain, as the median of the power spectrum. The median function is insensitive to the outliers (strong narrowband sig

[Flexradio] Noise floor driven, threshold based AGC?

I was listening to a homebrew SDR receiver last night and it stuck me how noisy it was compared to my analog, narrow band NC2030. As I thought about this for a bit, I think the reason that the NC2030 is so quiet (besides close attention of audio chain details), is that it has no AGC. Thus, I can

Brian, The keyboard keystroke associations that you associate with the PowerMate's functions are entirely configurable. The KB article is not a definitive text on setting the PowerMate up, but rather shows how it can be done using one person's personal preferences. So, essentially there is no wr
