Hello Everyone, Just following up on my 12/24/2012 thread but I just updated the FreeDV sources but it seems that the most current FreeDV sources still won't compile on my Linux setup. Any ideas on how to get past the libctb test for a 64bit Centos6 distro? I'm still getting: # rpm -ql

Hi David, Freedv works fine for me with one sound card (rx only), I just tested it again using the internal sound card of my laptop. Select none for both sound cards on the tx tab. It also handles 8kHz 16 bit wave files from the various options on the Tools menu. Cheers, David On Tue,

Hello David, Let me try it again and see if I can reproduce what I was doing wrong and maybe we can add an improved error dialog. Btw, great to hear that FreeDV can support plain WAV files too. --David Freedv works fine for me with one sound card (rx only), I just tested it again using

David, radios like the softrock have no narrow filters at all, and they work excellently with SDR. What you know from using CW and SSB is just wrong for this mode, and for SSTV, and you should not worry about your filters. Turn them, and your AGC, off. Your FT-950 is just fine for this mode.

Hello Everyone and Merry Christmas! Your filters are supposed to be useful for rejecting other signals when you're using CW or SSB. But it's not clear to me that they really do much when you're using software defined radio (which of course this is). SDR can provide software filters that are

David, Would you please drop this? Everybody has a right to operate and there's a sufficient guard channel - one that's almost as wide as the full bandwidth we use. We run at low power and extremely narrow bandwidth. If we find that there's an actual operator who is over-driving his radio

Hello David, Thanks so much for the email response. Please see inline.. Yep that's a freedv.org signal. This might be a dense question but is there a difference between a freedv.org signal and the fdmdv+codec2 command line tools? I would assume there isn't any difference. It's

Hi David, We currently have a windows program at FreeDV.org . Linux soon. You can download that and try to feed audio to it. Thanks Bruce attachment: bruce.vcf-- LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote
