Hi Noel,

 

The Skimmer bandwidth is limited to 24khz for the SoftRock-IF radio type. Here’s a snip of the bandpass from the Skimmer help file:

 

 

To get the full bandwidth delivered from the kx3 the radio would need to be selected as SoftRock type. Whether that would work or not depends on what type of software you are using to synchronize the LO of the radio with Skimmer.

Subject: [Skimmertalk] kx3 and cw skimmer

 

Hi,

 

I am using a new kx3 WITH THE CW SKIMMER , using the kx3 IQ OUT to  a xonar U7 sound card 24 bits 192 khz...

 

All is working fine EXCEPT the skimmer decodes ONLY 24 KHZ....etc/.

 

I followed the instructions for setting cw skimmer with kx3, IQ OUTPUT with a U5 xonar sound card, on ALEX web page...

 

My sound card is U7 XONAR.... SETTINGS ARE 24   BITS AND 192KHZ...

 

Wonder why I CAN DECODE ONLY 24 KHZ instead of 192 khz....

 

What could be wrong...

 

Thanks for your help

 

Noel
