Re: Controller V2

Although I don't have Controller V2 hardware, I've installed both linHPSDR and piHPSDR on a laptop here, just to keep up with the conversation. The inoperative button problem is a hardware issue and thus an Apache warrantee issue. I was able to reproduce your antenna switching bug here. It's a piHPS...

Re: No Output power when WSJT-X Tune button is activated

If you continue to have problems with VSPM, you might consider trying com0com (free) or Eterlogic VSPE ($25). My personal experience with VSPM is that it is not very stable, others have said it works fine. I use VSPE. There is no reason to not use CAT PTT. The additional complexity of serial port PT...

Re: CAT over TCP/IP rocks! And so does Hamlib!

Yes. You'll find lengthy discussions of the implementation by Richie, MW0LGE, if you search this forum. I don't remember the client limit, but it's a number that is high enough so that it shouldn't matter.

CAT over TCP/IP rocks! And so does Hamlib!

Sure, I've been using CAT over TCP/IP with 2.9.0.6 for a while now, but only with my Node Red station automation. Today I went all-in on setting up my commonly used app's to use TCP/IP. Anything with Hamlib works great. You just have to know the secret squirrel stuff, which is to type into the port ...

Re: VAC deactivates when switching LSB/USB to AM

VAC state is stored as part of any transmit profile. The transmit profile is tied to the state of the mode and band selected. If you have transmit profile "A" selected for SSB, and transmit profile "B" selected for AM, and you neglected to save "B" with VAC enabled then...

That implies that you have Protocol 1 firmware loaded, and therefore it is very unlikely that any problems might be firmware related, as the Protocol 1 firmware is quite stable.

OK, so it's just copper Ethernet wiring between the PC and the ANAN. Nice and simple.

Re: Routing VAC RX audio to my speakers

There ARE other options, but they are not as elegant, nor as simple. Option A: give up ASIO. If you give up ASIO (switch to MME or WDM) then you can set different input and output devices in Thetis VAC. Change the output to your built-in sound card and you are done. But that's a bad option because t...

Other than grabbing the edges or corners of the window and resizing it there are no other options for changing the scaling of the UI. There are no options for changing text size or the size of any of the UI components (sliders, buttons, etc.)

Re: Very large Under/Overflows all of a sudden

That makes sense, Bryan, and it indicative of why best performance is obtained by matching the VAC buffer size to the ASIO buffer size. All other ASIO compatible software I've used automatically follows the ASIO device buffer size. Thetis VAC ought to do that, too, but it is not programmed that way....

If you are using TCI or TCP/IP CAT, then the ANAN version doesn't matter. It could be an ANAN-10 and it wouldn't matter. The interface is between Thetis and the amp.

The M-Audio Air is one of those unfortunate interfaces that provides no ASIO driver control panel. The interface relies wholly on the application software to tell it what to do. AFAIK, Thetis does not send buffer size information ASIO interfaces. Therefore it is quite possible that the M-Audio buffe...

@Chiron The TCI and TCP/IP control features of Thetis are not directly useful for obtaining remote control of a station. They are merely two more ways of doing what serial CAT already does. Thus your RCForb/VNC/Teamviewer combination is, currently, the one of the best setups possible, and neither TC...
