RS232 INTERFACE/ CIRRO MAZZONI BABY LOOP

Good Morning All, I have a Cirro Mazzoni Baby loop, http://www.ciromazzoni.com/loop-baby, antenna which works fine with the ANAN 100D from 7.0 - 28.0 mHZ. As with any other mag loop, it has a narrow tuning range per each frequency and has to be retuned when moving a few kHZ up or down the band. This...

Thetis 2.6.0- Diversity

Good Evening All, I have been using Thetis v2.6.0 for the last two weeks and, for the most part, is performing as expected. One thing I can't figure out is why Diversity is not allowing me to lower the noise level as it did with PowerSDR in RX. When I try to make the adjustment using the Diversity u...

Re: HOT TX on WSJT-x

Scott, These are the best Display settings I have had since I got the radio 2 years ago. Primarily a digital mode user at home so I am very familiar with how the radio behaves with these operations. And, these settings have really seem to have given new life to the rig. I know your mantra of setting...

HOT TX on WSJT-x

Good Afternoon All, I have Thetis ANAN 100D and I see, on the waterfall, that TX signal, in WSJT-x, s pink and very wide. No matter how high or low I adjust TX Gain the signal is not changing in apparent bandwidth. I am using about 35 watts of power. What should I be looking a to correct the problem...

Re: Thetis 2.6.0 No Power-on

Re: WSJTX AND PWRSDR 3.4.9

Mike,

Thanks your help. It is working correctly now. I have been using WSJT-x since I had my FLEX 3000 4 years ago and just couldn't figure what I was doing wrong.

Rob, THANKS! This is cool. I can do this! As with the 10E, I think I had to remove the screws in back to be able to pull the board out. I would imagine the 100D requires the same protocol. Also, if I may, do you know which jumper switches from condenser to dynamic on the board? I want to ask you ano...

Yes, you are correct. This problem PC can communicate, with a non-static IP address, with PowerSDR Protocol 1 but can not communicate with the Thetis Protocol 2 100D. But after your explanation that the IP addresses for radio and computer can NOT match, I am beginning to see the fog clear. I was usi...

Re: ELECTRO VOICE RE320 THETIS v. PWRSDR

Ok. Unfortunately, I thought so. The RE320, as you may know, is a dynamic microphone. The condenser microphone I have does work perfectly with the Thetis ANAN100d. Now, I have to decide if using that microphone is worth disassembling the radio. I did it with the ANAN 10E but this is a whole new ball...

Yup, I know that process. However, after deleting those folders, the software still does not go through Command Prompt install and still returns to prior settings. I am doing a fresh win 10 install now. I only use this computer with the radio anyway.

Re: ANAN 10E AUDIO PROBLEM

I figured out the VoiceMeeter Banana configuration but there is no change to the quality of the audio coming out of the radio. The nearest thing I could compare it to would be like blowing bubbles underwater. A gurgling sound, I guess.
