I meant "other" non-Apache rigs -- thought I do have the schematics for the ANAN 100 that I got somewhere.

Mike W9MDB

And how do we request from the factory?
Every rig has schematics publicly available that I know of.

hamlib is not part of Thetis -- it comes with WSJT-X or JTDX and is called rigctl-wsjtx or rigctl-jtdx respectively.
You'll find hamlib by itself here that has rigctgl in it.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib ... amlib/4.0/

You can query using hamlib rigctl rigctl -m 2048 -r com16 -s 115200 Rig command: w ZZTS; Reply: ZZTS00301; At least on my ANAN100 the ZZTS command seems to return a constant value of what should be 30.1C -- that number doesn't seem to change. The ZZDU command shows 00000 for the temp reading so that...

What's the fan do in the new boards? Mine is still on backorder.

That would simply be injecting a tone and calling that the "carrier".
What are you thinking of testing?

Malwarebytes fixed the interference with Thetis.
I'm now running with the Web protection turned on without any problems.
It's version 4.3.0

Mike W9MDB

Those birdies are 55B or more below your signal....to be expected and actually very good rejection. RIght in line with the specifications of the rig and you can get better with PureSignal. IMD3 typically -68dB below PEP @ 100W output on 20M (with PureSignal) Use of LDMOS drivers and an optimized fin...

And turn off the Web protection in Malwarebytes.
I've been working with them on the interference the web protection is causing with Thetis...in my case the transmit audio stops.

I identified the problem....my ethernet card is doing a reset randomly....arrgghhh..relatively new computer too with a built-in-everything and no freakin' slots to add anything...and it's a high end HP Omen...no PCI slots at all.,

Is it just me? 2.8.11 with Anan 100 loses the ability to transmit frequently. Cycle the Power button and it usually gives "hardware error:" and I have to power cycle the rig too. Once in a while just the software Power cycle is all that's needed. PTT works but no power out. Never had this ...

There's an error in the "MG;" command. It's returning the dB level -10 to 14 instead of the TS-2000/50S/480 0-255 level and also using -10 to 14 for setting mic gain. It's OK for the ZZMG; to use the dB level as it currently does since it's PowerSDR specific but the MG; command should be s...

I'm using WSJT-X on my ANAN 100 and I had to drop the audio level in WSJT-X by over 12dB to get the audio level back down to where it should be. I had just done my power level settings before I upgraded to 2.8.8 from 2.8.6 and noticed my power was maxed out and kept dialing down to get it where it n...

Attack -- how fast the AGC adjusts the level
Hang -- how long the AGC level will last
Decay -- how long the AGC takes to back off.

Example...in dB attenuation

0-4 attack
4 hang
4-0 decay

That audio does sound like a fan running.
So what happens when you unplug the mic?
Does the headphone jack on the rig have the same noise?
Is your mixer grounded?

Mike

And what are your "couple of ground rods" connected to ? The house ground rod too?
If not that is an electrical code violation and bad idea to boot for RFI control.

Mike

Please describe your shack grounding system in detail. Hum is frequently caused by different ground potentials. I've had to help a number of people who stuck a rod in the ground outside their shack without grounding it to the house ground (doing it outside the house). Simply having them use the hous...

Did you also load the new version 2 firmware required for Thetis?

I get the same behavior if I don't force the VAC1 Monitor "TO VAC:"
I'm using Eltima VBCable. Is there some other setting to change?

I'm running Windows 10 Home Version 1909 build 18363.1082 and just did a WWV test on 10Mhz and it's rock solid.

Sounds like little like your TXCO is unstable. Did you do this shortly after you transmitted? Heat can affect things.

Mike W9MDB

Not sure why you have subnets...maybe you should switch to a class B or class A internal network address if you just want more address space and aren't actually routing anything special. Personally I use a class A internal address space. Class A: 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 Class B: 172.16.0.0 to 172...

If it's a Prolific you have to downgrade the driver to get it to behave.

It doesn't say it's an FTDI chip -- is it using an FTDI driver?
Every one I've seen that's FTDI says so.

What serial adapter do you have? Sounds like it's buggy.

Mike W9MDB

Try rolling back your network card driver.
I was having pauses not quite this bad and rolling back the driver solved the problem for me.

Mike W9MDB

I tested the same thing here and it still works.

Next step is to run this (note the "d" on rigctl).

rigctld-jtdx -m 2014 -r com1 -s 115200 -Z -vvvvv

And change JTDX to use "Hamlib Net rigctl" for the rig.

What do your rig settings look like?

I assume you are using the TS-2000 entry? Give this a try Shut down JTDX Open a cmd prompt cd \JTDX64\152\bin rigctl-jtdx -m 2014 -r com1 -s 115200 (adjust COM port and baud rate to suit) T 1 T 0 That should turn transmit on and off If that doesn't work add some debug switchs and post the last few d...

I just tested JTDX RC152 with my Thetis V2.7.0a3 and it works fine.
You do have "PTT Method" in JTDX rig settings as "CAT", correct?

Mike W9MDB

Where is source repository for your code?

Was playing around some more and found a problem with Thetis's VAC1 Audio Monitor. When you turn off "Force" the frequency oscillations are not stable. You can see where I was running with Force checked and then turned it off causing a +/- 1Hz variation in the measured frequency. This osci...
