A few quick updates on the V2 controller, we have an ETD of early September delivery of the enclosures and electronics from our Contract Manufacturer, I would like to thank everyone for their patience. John, G0ORX and Christoph, DL1YCF have been churning out updates and a recent change in the GUI is...

Hello Mike, I believe a reply has been send to K5UA informing him of the order ship date, We are shipping radios albeit at a lower volume due to the Social distancing at work requirement and the stage-4 lock down in Melbourne, Luckily we just finished a production run and now have enough stock of as...

The 10th GEN NUC does support Dual Channel DDR4, NVMe, USB 3.0 v2 and Thunderbolt 3.

We decided on the NUC after trying out several other platforms, the decision was based on the combination of Computing Power, RFI and overall stability of the platform. The NUC form factor is very compact, uses a SoC rather than a CPU/Chipset (this combination which require several high speed buses ...

Fantastic to see so many home brewers interested in the project, I am happy to share my modified front panel design file, and just so you have a fair estimate as to the costs see below: Please be aware that just the encoder costs (6 x Dual + Tuning) for the front panel is $125 plus the cost of parts...

Hello Erik,

The enclosures have been delayed by our sheet metal enclosure provider, we are looking at about 4-6 weeks before we can commence shipments.

Apologies for the delay.

Laurence, Doug, Kjell and myself have been working on Andromeda for a while now and most specs are now locked. The front panel implementation by Laurence & Kjell is in my opinion fantastic, the control layout is very ergonomic and all buttons/Encoders (Except for the tuning knob) can be reassign...

Hi Scott, Good to hear from you, please see inline below: So this looks to use the Orion MKII as is, not a new board, correct? Correct, we aim to keep all current/new rigs on the Orion MKII platform, the board performance has been maxed out using the current chips available and does not make sense t...

The ANAN-6000DLE is our new addition to the Black Edition Radios, this Radio comes in a miniature extruded Aluminum packaging much smaller that the 7000DLE MKII. Based on the Orion MKII Platform, this rig boasts of over 103dB DR, Dual ADC receivers for Diversity operation, Large FPGA, 16 Bit Tx chai...

Hi Ruben,

We have received and replied to several of your emails over the past few weeks, it seems that your ISP is blocking us,

We are happy to ship the box to you, however, since the volumetric weight is 6.5Kgs the shipping cost might be prohibitive,

This is an isolated problem in two units that both Doug and the factory are aware of, we have not seen this in any other units so seems like an isolated problem. Like all Manufacturers we are also having issues related to the supply chain due to the shutdown in China, HRO should have some units in s...

Hi Scott, As I mentioned there are significant changes to the LPF, SWR/Directional coupler design. The 200W PA has been tweaked as well. There is an internal low noise DC-DC converter for the 12v rail. I would recommend using Meanwell HEP-600-48, its completely silent and rugged. If fan noise does n...

Hi Christoph,

Many thanks for your effort and the amazing additions to Pihpsdr, I am running your latest commit and it works really well!

Hi Scott/Volker/Tony and all, These are the changes incorporated into the MKII compared to the previous model: 1. Incorporates the Orion MKII rev5.2 with the Tx attenuator (please note that all 8000DLEs shipped in the last few months also incorporate the same revision of the Orion MKII) 2. Use of 48...

Hi All, I would suggest that all ANAN-7000DLE/MKII and ANAN-8000DLE/MKII users update their firmware: https://apache-labs.com/download_file.php?downloads_id=1017 This firmware addresses an issue with the Mini Circuits Attenuators used in the radio, it seems that the new batch of attenuators do not l...

Hi All, We are pleased to introduce the ANAN-7000DLE MKII, there are several improvements and changes incorporated in this radio which improve the performance, stability and usability. 1. Integrated i5/i7 Windows 10 computer with SDR client preloaded and calibrated at the factory making the radio co...

There is nothing proprietary about the PA design, increase the bias for better IMD without PS, however, PS works best with 250mA bias (each MOSFET). Not sure why one would run the rig without PS enabled?

Conrad,

Are your measurements taken with PureSignal enabled?

Just finished making a working prototype of Laurence, G8NJJ and Kjell, LA2NI's excellent Console for the ANAN/HPSDR radios, this controls almost all the PowerSDR functions using a 4.3 inch touchscreen, Tuning knob, four dual rotary knobs and a set of 17 buttons. Next to get it into a decent housing!...
