Re: When running a new install of THETIS SW the panafall display in the THETIS main window is totally BLANK

With that information we cannot tell what firmware is actually loaded into the ANAN-200D, but it appears to be Protocol 2 firmware. Were you the one who loaded the firmware? Do you have the firmware file you used to load the 200D? If so, what is the name of it? Please use this link, Method 2, to de...

Re: When running a new install of THETIS SW the panafall display in the THETIS main window is totally BLANK

Dick, this sounds to me like it could be RF getting into your Ethernet cable. What happens if you set the Level control in Thetis to zero to cause zero power output and then click "tune" on WSJT? Does it still fail? If not, start advancing the level control and see if there is a point tha...

Re: When running a new install of THETIS SW the panafall display in the THETIS main window is totally BLANK

OK, so it's just copper Ethernet wiring between the PC and the ANAN. Nice and simple. All I can offer is to continue to run and gain more experience with your current configuration and see if problems persist. Note that is could be a bad cable. This has happened before. Move just one piece of equip...

Good morning Scott - Is the panafall blank all the time, only during TX, or only during RX? The Panafall display remains totally dark during RX and TX - Does the panafall work when you are using phone or CW modes (not WSJT-X)?

Re: 7000dle Squeal noise while TXing Digital Modes

Hello Yes, I power-cycled the 7000dle and reset the database and nothing changed. The way it is 'singing' to my ear, it is quite undesireable - very penetrating tone. I need to change the WSPR tone frequency and see if the squeal changes note too. Maybe some sort of transformer lamination vibration ...

7000dle Squeal noise while TXing Digital Modes

Recently while typing in a frequency an error was made and HPSDR mRX PS software set the frequency to ~62.xxx MHz. A BIG resounding bunch of relays clicked inside the 7000 and ever since that event there is a fairly loud high-pitched tone coming from inside the case during digital (FT8/WSPR) transmi...
