Phil The only time I have read about quantisation noise is in respect of detecting really weak signals. Can you point me to something that explains the problem you describe? How much noise will it

OK, and what is the error message you get when trying to install it on Win7? I know you know that Win7 support ended January 14, 2020, so the chances that your problem has a root cause of some kind

Bob, I think the PWR slider *IS* the computer soundcard level. I set the PWR slide to reliably trip the Signalink PTT and just a little more. This puts the TX level on the Signalink between 9 and

David, We are in agreement. I set the power slider to get a good solid PTT on the Signalink. then set the rig's output power with the Signalink TX control ,,, usually around 9-12 oclock. Works

I just downloaded and installed the Meinberg NTP Service on Windows 10 and it downloaded, installed, and runs fine. I like that it runs as a service at startup. I still have my USB GPS Dongle so that

UK regulations require 6 character location to be sent (or more loquacious data like 15 km E Edinburgh, EH54 9JE or Livingston) when operating away from home. It just means I shouldn’t use FT8

Correction. It will load on Windows 10 but not Windows 7. -- Thanks 73's de NU4N/Dave

I too thought minpoll of less than 4 was internally rounded up to 4, but I find that minpoll of 3 works (polls every 8 seconds) on my local NTP servers with the version of Meinberg that I'm using.

With a lot of help from this thread, I have established a GPSD/Raspberry Pi server. So far it has much less jitter and delay than the GPS pucks and any time source on the internet. But still if I

Because people will complain if they can’t adjust the output of WSJT-X. But seriously, you need to balance the audio levels, get as high an audio level as you can get to the radio without adding

>If I read the online WSJT help files correctly, the wizards of WSJT indicate that in FT8 Contest Modes, appending the /P suffix will suppress transmission of the 4 character grid locator in the "CQ"

Roger - Regarding use of the callsign suffix /R, the FCC in the USA previously required amateur repeater stations to use the /R suffix if they used a Morse code identifier rather than voice. There

That being the case, then why is the PWR slider in the WSJT-X application available for use in both the TUNE and TRANSMIT mode and why does the application allow for saving those settings? Thus if the

The RSP-1 or RSP-1a SDR receiver connected to your computer with HDSDR or other free software will do the job. You can either terminate the input to the SDR receiver with a 50-ohm resistor or just

Lost split control of IC7300 with 2.5.0-rc3, keep getting hamlib error. Hamlib error: Command rejected by the rig icom.c(1791):icom_set_mode_with_data return(-9) rig.c(4018):rig_set_split_mode

In my experience, the Raspian releases tend to lag software packages like gpsd signficantly. In order to get numbers for "Seen" and "Used" satellites, I had to install gpsd 3.22 When I did apt-get

Dave, Sorry, I don't understand, can you try again? 73, Willie N1JBJ

Re Alan W6AKB write up and random thoughts: Very good job. I have never tried NTPsec as the primary advantage of that version is security enhancements as you say which are really only relevant if you

I tried the program on my windows 10 but will load on windows 7 but keep getting the same error. -- Thanks 73's de NU4N/Dave

ALC indication is not an indicate of ALC threshold or action. In the Elecraft K3, K4 ALC action atarts beyond 4 bars. In most Icoms, powers setting sets ALC threshold, so at 100% there is no ALC
