Dear Friends, We are open for business and fulfilling orders, Based on advice/directions from the State of Victoria; we have set up multiple RF Labs including assembly capability so that each engineer can work in isolation and safety. Our Melbourne, Australia operations is fully functional and radio...

Apologies, we overlooked mentioning that the PCB for the controller has been designed by Kjell Karlsen, LA2NI.

For those looking for bare PCBs they will be available shortly.

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 Tony,

we have emailed you an invoice, if you would like to use the website the free shipping option has now been fixed.

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!...

Hi All, We have a few units of Factory refurbished (Display Units) as new ANAN-7000DLEs on special, these look and work like new and come with the full one year warranty. Limited units available, get one today: https://apache-labs.com/al-products/1051/ANAN-7000DLE-100W-HF--6M-Transceiver---Factory-R...

Hi Fabio,

The details of the connector (Digikey part nos)

A30590-ND (Connector)
A30642-ND (Metal connecting terminals)

You can use a fan up to 250mA 12v rating,

Thanks,

Abhi

The Fan controller is not software driven, it has a built-in temperature sensor and speed controller. The reason for doing so was to prevent cooling failure in case of a firmware/software crash. The low speed rattle is not specific to the particular fan used since we tested several models, May I als...

We tried several FAN controllers most of which caused serious EMI to the receiver, the controller used currently was the most RF silent, however, it induces a slight rattle in the FAN when running at low speed, you will notice that the rattle disappears when the FAN speeds up with temperature increa...

The 7000DLE internal FAN noise is slightly higher than the 200D, however, it is also moving more air, this was a conscious design decision and allows for a MUCH cooler radio, with the larger heat dissipation and better forced air cooling available to the 7000DLE it can run 100% ICAS duty cycle. 73, ...

Hi All,

We have shipped limited quantities to both HRO and Gigaparts as well as our EU Distributors,

All preorders should be fulfilled within the Next two to three weeks, thanks for your patience!

Hi Volker,

Yes, no Line Out, have been replaced by the two Digital Inputs, the Orion MKII header does provide the Line Outs but they are not connected to the back panel,

What do you need the line out for?

Thanks,

ANAN-7000DLE Update: We are happy to inform everyone waiting for the 7000DLEs that the factory has completed production of the first lot of PCBs, now we will commence integration of the electronics into the chassis and subsequent testing and burn-in of the radios, expected ship date is mid November....

Hi Rob, The 7000DLE certainly uses an Orion MKII, the PA board is completely new with the following improvements over the rev24 PA board: 1. PA Gain redistribution for better IMD 2. Thermally compensated Bias 3. Current/Voltage/Temp Sensors 4. Temp controlled internal and option for external FAN 5. ...
