Re: Abrupt reduction of noise floor on receive

On your ANAN it might be labeled RX2. Apache has labeled it differently over the years.

You might try some of those tests.

Re: Abrupt reduction of noise floor on receive

OK, probably not thermal.

How about a bad relay? Have you tried some of the other antenna inputs, or the second ADC input?

Re: Abrupt reduction of noise floor on receive

Has it always done this, or did the problem suddenly appear, or do you think it's always been there but you've never noticed it before? If the problem suddenly appeared, what changed that might be a contributor? Did you move the ANAN to a place that was hotter or colder? Is this something that could...

Re: M-Audio 192/4 Air Vs. Motu M2

If the MOTU is not connected to the rig what does it have do with the sound channels to the rig? Surely the audio it not going out the USB and back in again.... The "rig", meaning the ANAN box, is not a radio by itself. It is part of a radio. It really does not deserve the title "rig...

Re: Click from Microphone

It would not be hard to get out an Ohm meter and check the pinout on the microphone. You could also do some mild disassembly of the mic to further confirm the actual wiring.

If it's truly wired as discussed, then the only thing I have left to offer is that if you've got the mic PTT button wired up, then unwire it from the TRS connector and see if that fixes the problem.

Does it still work OK on whatever the old PC was?
