[Flexradio] 1.4.5.Beta Preview 2 Waterfall

Switching from Phase to Phase 2 to Waterfall will cause the Watherfall to "appear to have" a very high input level (all of display turns bright yellow).  Switching back to the Panadapter and then to Waterfall will "fix" the problem and sigs are then displayed ok.  Anyone else notice this?

I may have found a bug in 1.4.5  -    Problem:  "Keys" the SDR in "any mode" when MOX is activated -after- the "old keyer" window has been opened and closed.  As long as the old keyer window is "open", MOX will not "key" the SDR, but when closed, MOX will key the SDR in any mode (LSB, USB,

[Flexradio] Mutiple amp PTT control?

I have a DEMI 2m amp and a separate HF KW amp both needing PTT control.  Is there a way to use one of the other open collector X2 pins as a 2nd PTT line so I do not have to switch them? Or is there another way to handle the PTT requirements for 2 or more amps?  I thought about using the K1 o

Mike The delta 44 has its own ASIO so you will not need to install it seperately. The SDR documentation has a hard time keeping up with the many changes. Keep your eye on this reflector for up to date changes. Mel, K0PFX - Original Message - From: "Mike Naruta" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To:

[Flexradio] "True transceive" problem

All, I've noted a difference of about 7-8Hz between transmit and receive. When operating PSK31, for example, the receiving station sees this error in frequency. It is not stability, rather the transmitter does not appear to be transmitting on exactly the same frequency as the receiver, receives.

I would like to see a CW MOX mode that would provide "TX on keyboard press" for the internal keyboard.  UA9SOV's CWTYPE program does a nice implementation of CW MOX operation. Perhaps, something like his keyboard setup could be done for the SDR1000. I believe too many mouse movements and cl
