Re: Implementation of Pure Signal by Dr. Pratt in other radio

Chas - K2BU mentioned this platform to me on the air several weeks ago. As Scott noted it will be interesting to see how the release of the OL Master software will be handled given that elements of the open-source work created by developers of the Thetis project are present in their software. One li...

Re: anan 200 d amp view

Hi Brent, As another ANAN 200D owner I am with Mark and very curious about your SetPk value. My 200D is running protocol 2 and displays a very different default value for SetPk. I too am using an Xtronic coupler with 10dB of attenuation inserted in the return line. Just curious if pure signal is sta...

Re: LED Mirror on setup F/W set window (FW 2.2.2)

Hi Maurizio,

There was some discussion of this back in April of 2022 with some speculation that it was for debugging purposes. See link below.

Thanks for the combination Thetis + firmware fix for the RF appearing on RX only ports. With P2 firmware v1.9.20B installed in my 200D and running Thetis v2.10.3.6 Dev 2 there is no longer a detectable RF pulse during CW on ports marked "Do not TX". I have been running the firmware and the...

Direct X dependencies with Thetis

A friend of mine is struggling to get Thetis to run on a computer running a video card from the 2009 era. It's an Nvidia Quadro FX-580 which I am not sure is compatible with Direct X 11 or 12. With no checkbox that can be unchecked to disable Direct X dependency in Thetis, what happens when you try ...

Seems like Thetis for some users is not finishing its task of updating data to the the database and other files used for data storage in the users section of windows when it is closing. Could it be a permissions issue with windows? Just a long shot but is Thetis running with admin privileges?

My problem is I assume since we're setting a drive level per band per profile you would need to set the "power limit" by right clicking the Drive (or tune slider) and set the maximum power level. If I do that, it works great as a per band power limit but it doesn't follow a PA profile; ju...
