Maybe it's my imagination, but the speech processor shows a higher average
level output on the LP-100 meter. Still sounds excellent on ESSB.

Ron, have you noticed any changes in TX audio characteristics?

Ray: I noticed a number of improvements that may have simply come from
cleaning up some of the code so that everything runs better. DSP version is
now at 2.08b80...I can't remember what the old one was.
The waterfall may not be that big of an attraction, but the regular
"spectrum analyzer" display is larger, seems less 'vertically compressed'
and more useful.
The NR (RF AGC) is quite a bit improved over the old version and does a
better job of quieting background noise on weak signals, both phone and CW.
I haven't tested it yet, but the QSK sounds faster and cleaner.
I haven't tried the "Mic/Pwr Setting Per Band", but if it does what I think,
I should be able to have the rig automatically set the power for 100 Watts
on 30 meters and 40-45 on the other bands where I use a linear.
Another thing I found in early testing is that the AM carrier is now more
stable than ever. Changing audio levels doesn't push the carrier up and
down like it used to.
All-in-all, I think the update is well worthwhile!

Hi all,
I'm at a bit of a disadvantage here because my O II is at my other QTH and
I
haven't had a chance to try 2.041XL yet. Reading the comments, however,
gives me the impression that the improvements may not be worth the hassle
of
dealing with the bugs, especially if (like me) you don't care much about
the
waterfall display.
What am I missing?
