Re: Thetis v2.10.3 released

Bug report. When using DX Labs Commander, Thetis 2.10.3 will work fine until the power button on the GUI is clicked. That locks the entire GUI. The only way out is to kill Thetis in Task Manager.

Re: Severe problem with PureSignal

When I bought my 7000dle new in 2017 it had a similar issue right out of the box. I sent it to Doug and he found a relay that did not have all its pins soldered. He fixed it and its been working great ever since.

Re: No Receive, Transmit OK

Sherman, I never leave Thetis up when the radio is off. Something gets screwed up in it. This is fairly repeatable. Always close Thetis and you will not have this problem. YMMV..

Re: Dynamic vs. Condenser Microphone

Hi Tem, I have a 7000DLE and an RE27N/D. I have run it straight into the front of the radio with great results, but now I use a Behringer UMC202HD USB sound interface with excellent results too. I have a pair of amplified speakers, Fostex 6301B's. These do all my PC sound though the Behringer. No fa...

Where are you located? There may be other 7k users near you, pretty easy to swap out hardware and eliminate that as an issue.

Re: Thetis 2.9.0.6 lockup on return to receive from transmit

By crash I mean the Thetis program freezes, no receive and no response to pushing buttons, except Power and the PLL. Strangely, the transmit usually works. Almost always the radio must be cycled off then on to make it work again. Always requires shut down and restart of Thetis. You have a networkin...

Most have a pot to set the voltage.


The Huawei r4850g2 supply does not have a pot. It must be adjusted via the CAN bus which is a bit tricky. It puts out 53.5 VDC. I have 2 of them.

Re: Power spikes from ANAN 7000 DLE MKII and SS amps?

Thetis/7k does not overshoot at all. I have been running my 7k with my RF-Kit SS amp for over 4 years now. Probably the best behaved transmitter out there.

Re: Thetis v2.9.0 - Updates and Issues

2TON issue. The 2TON button looks good when I start Thetis, but when I click it, it changes to white on gray and stays that way, almost invisible. I am using the W1AEX skin. I looked in the skin directories and cannot find this graphic, it must be imbedded in the code.

TCI and RF-Kit, has anyone got the 2 talking yet? I am having no luck here.
RF-kit has TCI installed, pointing at the Anan/Thetis IP and port. Thetis 2.9.0.3
Thetis is set for default,, 127.0.0.1:13013 and server running.
No traffic in log window.
