Re: Thetis v2.10.3.3 released

Hi Perry, It is because either side of the spot 3.885 it has the 75m SSB entries. The same could be done with the 11m spot frequencies, but there would be a lot of fillers to rebuild the 11m areas, 41 one of them in Clint's case. Cheers. spot3885.png Dude, I didnt even notice that.. Thanks so much....

Re: Thetis v2.10.3.3 released

@WA6TMJ You need to remove the 11m entry, as yours fall inside that, so all of yours get dumped. It has always been like that as I have not touched that code. Downside is that it will show out of band when just outside your spot channel frequencies. You could add a whole bunch to include the areas ...

Noise Floor Issue On 12m/11m

So, when I tune up from the top band edge of 12 meters, to I guess its 11 meters, the noise floor rises considerably and covers up incoming signals. Even when I switch from an antenna to my dummy load, the noise floor doesn't change. But if I go just below 24.990, the noise floor drops to an S2, wha...

Re: Thetis GUI off screen

I run 150% scaling on a 4k monitor, same resolution, and it's perfectly fine weather thetis is maximized or the window is resized and not taking up the entire screen. Man, if I change the scaling to anything bigger, everything on screen is giant. I mean like way too big.

Re: TX power some bands

Try hitting the tune button instead. Or if in ssb, modulate because you're not going to show any power out on ssb without modulation. This may not make a difference because you said you have power out on some bands, but worth a shot.

Richie, Is a S/N Ratio meter in the future at any point? IMO a S/N Ratio (SNR) meter is actually much more relevant than a simple S-meter because it actually shows the signal level relative to the noise level , which is much more valuable info than just the raw S-meter reading of a signal.

So last night I decided to put a fan on the right rear (looking at it from the front) of the radio. Doing 3 minutes on, 3 minutes off, of 50w carrier, I would lose 1 watt of power. By the time I would key back up after 3 minutes, the fan would cool things down and the power would be back at 50w. I h...

Re: Power Loss After 7000DLE Warms Up

My best bet would be bias changing with increasing temperature. Is this a common issue with the 7000 series? Also, is there anything that can be done to stop this? Im going to add some cooling on the top of the case to see if that will stop it or at least make it less apparent. Thanks Scott, Perry
