Re: Is Bootloader working OK for people who are running Windows 11?

HPSDRBootloader (version 2.0.4.4) 2015-1-29 worked with my relatively fresh computer build here with Windows 11 22H2 (10/19/23) build 22621.3007.
Installed npcap-1.79.exe then did a reboot before running HPSDRBootloader.
Installed firmware Metis_Orion_MkII_Protocol_2_v2.2.2.rbf

Mode Switching Issue..?

The problem I am experiencing has been around for a while - normally not a big deal, until I start chasing a lot of DX requiring frequent mode switching. If I am running CW and then switch to FT8(DIGU) the 7000 will key but no RF. Shutdown/restart of Thetis allows FT8(DIGU) to function again. If in ...

Re: Thetis v2.8.11 - UPDATES and current issues

Hel Richie,

Yes your are correct. I was using Ham Radio Deluxe as a layer between WSJT-X and Thetis. I did this because I use multiple rig types, simplifies switching rigs. Something in HRD is causing the issue. Thanks and sorry for the waste of your time!

Re: Thetis v2.8.11 - UPDATES and current issues

In current Thetis RC version 21k9rc5b programs like WSJT-X that send CAT commands to VFO B for frequency shift on/during transmit - Thetis assigns VFO B freq also to VFO A. Reverting back to an older version like 21k7 the "issue" is not exhibited. VFO Sync is not enabled. VFO A lock does k...

Re: Quirks with Thetis

Sorry Scott thats not a fix here. Buffers continue to count "TO" underflows and "FROM" overflows. Both set to 1.000. Buffer set to 2048 and all manual boxes unchecked.

7000DLE and Linear Amplifier interfacing

What is the correct"port" to inject the sampled signal from the linear amplifier for pure signal correction in the 7000DLE?

Re: WSJT-X FT8 - OpenHPSDR 3.4.9 - 60M

Thanks Scott. I think your method will work the best. Given the opportunity to work FT8 in DXpedition mode again on 60M, I will just change that setting before I operate and change it back after the Q. Wish I would have thought of that while KH1/KH7Z was in operation on 60M. Anyone want to try a tes...

Re: WSJT-X FT8 - OpenHPSDR 3.4.9 - 60M

Perhaps I need to be more specific. I have no problem transmitting on the 60M band. That is not the issue. The issue is with the specifics of how the WSJT-X software works in the FT8 DXpedtion mode. Hence the query to someone that actually has used WSJT-X in the FT8 mode successfully. In DXpedition ...

WSJT-X FT8 - OpenHPSDR 3.4.9 - 60M

For those that have this working on transmit, what setup are you using on WSJT-X for rig control and what settings on OpenHPSDR are you using that allows the OpenHPSDR to function without transmit errors (outside of channel etc)

Re: ANAN-8000DLE SWR Protection

So, looking at the arduino 1.6b code there is no hysteresis in measurements of SWR. I added 250 msec delay before fault trigger and that cured the random SWR mismatch errors. Code will fault if SWR is greater than 3.5 and power is greater than 50W, seems generous enough. Noticed on the front panel d...

Re: ANAN-8000DLE SWR Protection

Scott I may have to revert.
Looking at the arduino code at the moment. The version number in the code is still 1.06. In other words the filename/sketch name is 1.06b but the code was not changed to reflect the version change.
Now will look at the SWR routine.
Thanks

Re: ANAN-8000DLE SWR Protection

Tom I am running protcol 2 and Thetis. The sketch upload seemed to complete with no errors. Does your 8000DLE show version 1.06 on the display or 1.06B after the firmware upload? If yours shows 1.06B then my upload was not successful (Although the SSB SWR error issue was addressed after the firmware...

Re: ANAN-8000DLE SWR Protection

Upon receiving the 8000DLE and getting it operational I noticed the rig had high sensitivity to SWR on SSB. Downloaded the SWR sensitivity "fix". Seems that the issue is corrected for SSB. However just tried a long run (many contacts) on CW and found the SWR sensitivity issue still very mu...
