It's a software limitation. There is plenty of network bandwidth.

All, As of the date of this post, I have updated the name of this sub-forum to be more inclusive. This can now be the place to discuss and exchange ideas on all manner of control surfaces for Thetis and PowerSDR mRX. Control surfaces were, at one time, somewhat limited to MIDI controllers and variou...

I agree with Paul. The CAT command language provided with Thetis is extraordinarily rich compared to other radios. Macro buttons are the way to make the software all things to all people. Then folks only need to complain about missing CAT commands (or how to write macros ;) ). A macro button facilit...

E.g. 14.070 USB , all three are in sync. I click on something, say at 2500 on the waterfall and hit QSY which should bring it to 14.071 with that signall centered, in my case, on 1500. The frequency change gets overridden by the other apps. This is also true if I just try and tune via fldigi direct...

It sounds like somehow the setting for SWR Plotter have become corrupt. Your best bet is probably to uninstall it and reinstall it. Since this entire topic has nothing to do with Thetis, or macros, I'm moving it to the Digital Mode/Rig Control sub-forum. I'll eventually change it's title to "SW...

You have not provided enough information to render an intelligent answer. Is SWR Plotter no longer communicating with Thetis at all? Is it issuing commands and controlling Thetis but not getting data back? What's going on, exactly? You are going to need to provide more detail instead of just "M...

"Fight each other" is not specific enough to really understand what is going on. If you elaborate on this a bit perhaps some better answers might be forthcoming. One thing is for certain: when attaching multiple software app's to Thetis, either by serial CAT, TCP/IP CAT, or TCP/IP TCI, it'...

Similar to what I still see occasionally when operating split, albeit in-band. There's nothing "occasional" about this behavior. It is wholly and reliably 100% repeatable. It really made it a PITA to operate during the Armed Forces Day Crossband Test event yesterday. If fixing this fixes ...

Bug report... Erroneous behavior: S-ATT set to 31dB after each TX during split mode operations when receive frequency on VFO-A (RX) is outside of an amateur band and VFO-B (TX) is inside of an amateur radio band. Method of TX does not matter: PTT, MOX, VOX all produce the same results. Conditions t...

AFAIK 6.0 is good to go.

For Protocol 1 firmware, which is what you should probably start with, your answer is right here in this forum where you posted: Capture.JPG For Protocol 2 firmware, that's a much more complex topic. It is best if you read the "New Protocol explained" and Angelia "tacked" topics ...

That's enough plots to know Mike's got a problem. The question is what problem?

Power supply? Firmware? I'm stumped right now.

Why do you think that this spectra is coming from a path that is prior to the LPFs?

Mike--are you running PureSignal while doing this or not? If not, please try it that way just to get a little more data. Also try two-tone so we can see what that looks like.

It would be great if other people with 7000's would post some results for comparison purposes.

Just like you need virtual audio cable software to move the audio between applications, you need virtual serial port software to move serial CAT information between applications. The three most common virtual serial port software app's are com0com, VSPM, and Eterlogic VSPE. My personal choice is Ete...

Edit: And that 50KW station employs a 7-element tower array that beams the strongest signal in my direction. Daaaaamn :( A little thread drift, so I am spanking myself ;) : Since you can get to the cable that goes between the Orion MKII board RX1 input and the output of the PA/RF board, it would no...

I always run in bypass (preselector off) and I never see any ADC overload indications. The preselector is only third order, it doesn't offer a ton of rejection. It's a moot point, anyway, since during TX the WB display is fed by the PureSignal feedback coupler if PS is turned on, and the PS feedback...

There are lots of happy people running SPE amp's with Apache hardware and Thetis/PowerSDR. I suspect he just got tired of helping people sort out the serial port wiring. He could just point them at this forum, or write up some directions. Perhaps more than just tired of that. I heard recently that ...

Something is badly wrong. None of those little spurs should be there. You should be seeing even numbered harmonics only. The ADC overload indication is also a bad one. What version of Thetis and what version of firmware are you running? I'm suspicious that the firmware is not closing timing properly...

IIRC this used to work, and maybe still does in PowerSDR mRX. Doing this was no different than using the numeric controls. It does not currently work in Thetis.

Does that clear up any confusion?

This is what mine looks like when transmitting on 14.074MHz: Conditions are an ANAN-8000DLE, KPA1500 amp at 1500W, PureSignal activated, feedback is from the KPA1500 internal coupler.



Yours looks like there is a serious problem somewhere. Under what conditions was it captured?

The "A" answer is to get a QRO rated tuner, but those are admittedly $$$

There is no MIDI or CAT support for that setting.

Are you using two different antennas, one for QRO and one for barefoot op's?

Don't download it directly to a Google Drive storage location. Download it directly to your PC hard drive.

I'm not sure people are thinking big enough. One need not be limited to one or two dial style gauges, be they old fashioned or ultra-modern. Here's what, IMHO, would be most useful, something like this: Capture.JPG Where each vertical bar Is user defined/selected to represent the parameter desired a...

Wow! That looks so bad it the amp must be broken somehow

Thanks for posting the root cause. The database remains a complex monster. If Richie wasn't Johnny on the spot then manually restoring from a screenshot backup might have been the only option.

Other than the want/wish postings on the Thetis sub-forum, is there a bug report repository somewhere? I'm just wondering where these issues are being captured and prioritized, i.e latency creep, sidetone record/playback in semi break-in bug etc. It would be nice to see that list with a bunch of ch...

Cecil: 1. Please post a screen shot of the error message you are getting. 2. Confirm that if you reset the existing database that you can then import the problem database: yes or no? 3. Once the problem database is imported, please try the following: a) Export that database b) The next time you want...

As Richie wrote, there are some issues with it. I can report that it doesn't work for me here, I.e. I cannot adjust the TX passband graphically when in transmit. What I normally do is turn on the TXFL lines and then use the TX passband controls to adjust my TX bandwidth until the lines match up with...
