Re: Remove, or Change, Tx Slider Limit To Adjustable Value

Running x64 Thetis v2.10.3.5 u2 on Win10 connected to ANAN-100B. Works pretty good. However, when I went to use the direct Watts tx slider recently, I noticed there is now a limit, and "over 69%" indicator placed on the main panel slider for 6m, i.e. a 70% -100% of FS red line and no value...

Re: Thetis 2.10.3.4 pre release 5 - CPU Meter

V2.10.3.4 pr5 Win10 x64 protocol 2 installed and working fine on my ANAN 100B, except that there is no status bar CPU meter. Though not updating (stuck on 100%), it was there on my previous running release and did update on even earlier releases. The CPU meter's update rate is in settings>display>re...

Re: Thetis v2.10.3.3 released

Been using v2.10.3.3 for a couple days now and have not noticed any problems running my ANAN-100B, except that the bottom of screen CPU Usage meter does not update and reads 100% at all times in either Thetis or System. I think the Usage meter actually stopped updating when I updated to v2.10.0. The...

Installed Thetis v2.10x64 6/19/23 on my ANAN-100B and running for a couple weeks. One small problem/bug so far - tx filter outline on panadapter screen shows a positive offset, i.e. it is at a higher frequency (the tx shows almost completely outside and below the filter outline) than the tx, which i...

Re: Thetis v2.9.0 - Updates and Issues

V2.9.4 installed on Win10 and working with my ANAN 100B. Default PA settings for the 100B are reasonable, but not as fine tuned as my previous ones (Thanks for reminder to save them). Seems to be working fine so far.

It is early, of course (only a few hours on it now), but I like it and have seen no problems. I just exported my old database for comfort. Opened the new download installer and it converted the...

Re: Thetis 2.8.11 Rx Level Calibration

I think I get the operation now. Thanks for your help.

BTW, the lower right hand amplitude readout seems to show the right value if the largest signal in the band is right on the center (VFO) frequency, and it is within the set rx filter by itself. Otherwise, the value is pretty far off.

Re: Thetis 2.8.11 Rx Level Calibration

It makes sense that the pan adaptor level readings should be affected by the the bin width being used in the FFT and matches what I see when rechecking while adjusting the bin width. I have not had much experience with spectrum analysis so did not catch the bin width to signal width measurement rela...

I do mostly digital (WSJT usually) and have only two problems: 1) On 6m, the preamp fails to be switched in after tx, about every four tx>rx cycle. The preamp will switch back on after one or a few...

Re: Frequency Resolution/Accuracy for OpenHPSDR + 100B

Good to know. Do you know if OpenHPSDR repeats better than 1Hz resolution to CAT connections - say allowing the WSJT-X cal function to record correctly for fractional Hz drifts?

Frequency Resolution/Accuracy for OpenHPSDR + 100B

Does anyone know what the max resolution and actual accuracy of the 100B's VFO frequencies used within the 100B's FW, OpenHPSDR and reported via CAT are?

I am wondering whether a GPSDO external reference is worthwhile if it's not much better than the cal function and VFO readouts.
