I purchased the DRM software and loaded it onto my ham shack PC today. I am
using the Jupiter to supply the 12 KHz digital IF. I understand that all of
the new Jupiters have the digital IF on a miniature jack like the RX-320D.
I actually have the software loaded on my desktop PC and my laptop. I was
concerned with the lack of "line in" connector on the laptop, but that did
not seem to be a problem. It will be much easier to demonstrate the DRM
software somewhere other then the "shack" using the laptop. I was able to
listen to CBC 9755 and RNWB 11,525. The quality is very nice. I found that
I had a bit too much output from the Jupiter even with the line in turned
down all the way with the PC control. I found I could control the level by
switching to fast AGC and also reducing the RF. If you want to try
something new, give it a try. It does work with the Jupiter.
The DRM software will not work with the Orion. The software needs a 12 KHz
signal. I think the Orion IF is in the 30 KHz range.
