Re: Which one? Anyone compare them?
Hi Scott,
Has Hercules Starlight Compact which seems very similar to your controler been successfully used for this task ?
I can get one for a good price and would like to test it.
Which labeling system did you use ?

Re: Anyone ever run Pure Signal with a non-linear amplifier? Say a class C?
Wow does that mean that PS will make a class C amplifier feel like a true linear class A or AB ? Class C amps boosting FM or pure carrier signals would not need PS. Did you check the behaviour on a separate SDR receiver or spectrum analyzer ? This could simplify and cheapen PA in the future. It's ha...

Hi All ! Bootup takes less than 12 seconds (Thetis 2.6.9. I7-4770 K.@3.5GHz, 24 GB RAM; 0.5 TB SSD. Network & radio with fixed IP) This fast bootup has been since the last Win10-64pro update some weeks ago; before it was much slower as was all my software unfortunately I did'nt make a comparativ...

Re: 2.7.0
Hi Georg, remember to utilize DDUtil v 3.2.5 and connect your radio to your computer & the amp to your computer (as explained in the amp manual) so you can automatically control your drive level in Thetis by band. So you never overdrive your 1K-FA. I've been utilizing this procedure since I got ...

Re: I'm trying to ID lines on waterfall
Hi Ruben, the first thing to do is to unplug any antenna from the radio. If the lines disappear its probably an interference of some sort coming "on the air" maybe a local one. If the lines remain the culprit might be some rubbish getting into the power line or any wire connected to your r...

Re: Thetis 1/24/2020 update
Hi Pierre ! After having heard about a new FW implementing transverter operation on the Orion mark 1 board (Anan 200D). Great thanks to Rick N1GB ! I decided to reinstall Thetis 2.6.9 completely from scratch (after deinstalling a previous 2.6.9 install AND after deleting ALL Thetis files in C:/Users...
Re: 2.6.9
Hi Rick ! You're a winner !!! This FW version works exactly like it should : - Disable PA effectively cuts off the PA : there is no more power output from the PA board when an Xverter is selected even at full power. - xmitter keys up in all modes - Signal at the Xverter output is adjustable in the P...
Re: 2.6.9
Hi Rick,
to keep it short : the new FW disables PTT & TX keying when PA disable is checked in XVTR menu. There is no action
from this checkbox on the PA at all.
Will try this new version right know & report.
Regards & many thanks.

Re: 2.6.9
Hi Rick and thank you much for your help. I checked quickly the FW version 1.9. Unfortunately when PA disable is checked in the XVTR menu AND when selecting a transverter in the VHF band table the transmitter does not key anymore (tune, mox or foot switch) although the panafall windows goes in trans...
Re: 2.6.9
Hallo Norbert ! I use the 200D Orion MK1 board (the 7000 DLE uses Orion MK2 board and a different FW). I use several Kühne modules : and of course I use separate TX & RX paths as you do. I suspect the FW 1.8 for the Anan 200 D to have a missing feature allowing to disable PA. Maybe some one has ...

Hi All I gave It another try to day as I am now retired I have more time. Reflashed FW 1.8 (ANAN 200D) then deleted all Thetis files in AppData/Roaming/OpenHPSDR before installing Thetis _v2.6.9.0_25Jan20.msi. No luck : after redoing setup from scratch I have still the same mess. As soon as I touche...

Addendum When I reinstall PowerSDRmrx & reflash protocol 1 FW things work flawlessly : when checking PA inhibit box on Xvtr setting page there is no power output from the PA. Returning to Thetis-FW 1.8 (protocol 2) brings the issue back. Probably a bug in Thetis or in the protocol 2 FW. 73s Phil...

Re: PA disable not functionnal
Addendum
Under PowerSDR mrx & protocol 1 the PA disable function works on my system.
After reflash of FW1.8 and reinstall of Thetis from scratch (yes i watched the wisdom file creation)
there is no more PA disable function.
So this is a Thetis bug.
