Bob: Are you using Skype, IP-Sound or some other method to feed audio in and out? I had done some experimenting with IP-Sound, encapsulated by Hamachi and remote controlled by UltraVNC, which is fair
Actually it does work...eventually. I appears that it takes a long time to adjust. Once it does, the notch is very deep. Try it on some of the big AM SW carriers on 40 meters. I initially thought it
Having the wrong COM port selected would certainly prevent the download, but I have also found that even if the COM port is the right one that the settings for it might be wrong. I remember reading t
It's not all that 'dreaded' of a problem, and it can be corrected by just turning the sweep off and on from the front panel. It's probably just some sort of register overflow in the firmware that wil
Maybe if I get time in the next couple of days, I'll hook up my signal generator and see if a certain level triggers the phenomenon. Ron N6IE www.N6IE.com -- Original Message -- From: "Ron Zond" <k3m
I just checked on RTTY and could no reproduce that problem. S-meter operates as in other modes, but I have noticed that when tuning, the S-meter freezes along with the sweep and will not change until
Just tested with a signal generator on 40 meters and could not recreate the problem with signals up to 0 dBm. Must be caused by something else. Ron N6IE www.N6IE.com Maybe if I get time in the next c
Jim: That's exactly what I am seeing and what I believe has been described by others. The 'spectrum trace' red (which is a peak-hold trace) is all you're supposed to see and is one of the improvement
I don't know why they didn't put it in What's New, but it was in the Product Status on the website since August. Ron N6IE www.N6IE.com -- Original Message -- From: "BOB@W2PNJ" <bobw2pnj@optimum.net>
I guess it depends on a couple of things. First, what kind of microphone are you using? Mics like the PR-40 sound excellent for ESSB, but to use it for contesting requires a lot careful settings wher
The best sounding for ESSB is the Heil PR-40, but a lot of other mics will work well, too. The Heil GM 4 or GM 5 can switch from an excellent sounding 'studio quality' mic element to either the HC-4
I don't think I have heard one on the air, but here is a description I found on the WB0W website about it: "From the amateur radio division of Heil Sound, Ltd., we present the PR 781, a professional
Scott: Sounds like an excellent accessory. Are there any test results that show increased average power output from specific rigs like the Orions or Omni VII and are there audio files that can be mad
Thanks Scott...I'll be watching! Ron N6IE www.N6IE.com -- Original Message -- From: "Ten-Tec Amateur Radio Sales" <sales@tentec.com> To: "Ron Castro" <ronc@sonic.net>; "Discussion of Ten-Tec Equipmen
In answer to your questions, I don't use external DSP since I don't think there is not much more that can be done to receive audio to make it more intelligible. None of the implementations of DSP I'v
Jack: The Power control on the Orion is actually an ALC threshold control, so as you drop the ALC threshold to hold the power to a lower level, you should also drop the audio drive level. 5 Watts is
It depends on what kind of ugly. If they are ugly in highly articulate ways, it's the strongest signal. In case of a tie it's the one whose audio characteristics most closely match the frequency rang
John: I started seeing the same problem for the first time a few weeks ago, and I performed the fix you described back in July on connector J8. That solved the problem for me, but it's always a possi
It's possible that the fixed capacitors in the tuning network, C15 - C20, are heating on the low bands, much like the problem that has been discussed on this list regarding the fixed caps in the 238
So I tuned into the dummy load, 100W input and adjusted the amp to be at max output with a 30 Ig. The amp read around 2,100 W out on the analog meter. I waited some time and keyed with no issues with
