[Flexradio] MixW Setting Question

2012-02-22 Thread W6SDM Steve
I have MIxW configured and working - sort of. I have been through the WIIKI and the program is operating with PowerSDR except that my waterfall in MixW is colored thin horizontal lines instead of the full waterfall I see in the panafall. I have changed my sample rate in both PSDR and MixW between

Don't get the connection. If we have good propagation in Europe (multi-hop E or whatever) on 6 meters, why do we need an amateur allocation on 4 meters. I believe a U. S. amateur in 2009 has already submitted a proposal to the FCC for consideration of a 4 meter slice, but the FCC has yet to respond

You are correct, multi-hop E into Europe is usually good on 6 meters every summer. That's why we need an amateur allocation on 4 meters (70.0-70.5 MHz). I keep mentioning it to the ARRL but they don't seem interested. Hopefully the Canadians will push for it and then maybe the bureaucrats her

Everyone, I just received a PAR high pass filter to block out the AM broadcast band and above to permit receiving below 500 KHz. It's a 5th order low pass and offers at least 40 db attenuation in the broadcast band. http://www.parelectronics.com/bcst-lpf-specs.php I inserted it into my 5000A's

Don't get too excited! Using our 3000's we were able to keep 98% of regular skeds between central New Jersey and SW Wisconsin easily on 40 until the dumb sun spots brought the QRM up to the point where we don't even try to talk to each other on contest weekends! Lee K9WRU - Original Mes

[Flexradio] 5000A with HRD

Hi I am using HRD with DM780 as the Data mode system with my 5000A transceiver. So far I am able to decode incoming signals but am not able to transmit. Is there where in the knowledge base that can walk me through the setup or is there a friendly ham with this setup who can give me some pointe

There is always E skip, it's independent of the solar sunspot cycle with yearly peaks in the Summer and lesser ones in the Winter.   Good all the way to 2 meters sometimes!  A solid E opening on 10 is good, just usually short time wise.  I've worked multi hop E into VK on 10 and 6 from New Eng
