Re: Controller V2

Going back to question 1. Why don't I see V2 or the CPU Usage percentage indicator on the top toolbar of my screen? Because you didn't modify your Raspberry Pi operating system like the author of the manual did before he took those screenshots. Remember that you have a Pi based computer there runni...

Re: Using THETIS SW to control a 200D can not control an external amplifier

Dick, There's a lot to unpack here: 1. Before you get too far you need to upgrade to the latest version of Thetis. 2.8.11 is very old. You want to install 2.9.0.6. You can get it here: https://github.com/ramdor/Thetis-2.9.0/releases/tag/v2.9.0.6 Download the x64.msi file and install. 2. In 2.9.0.6 t...

Re: still need coupler ?

There is a proper internal coupler built into the 7000, and it is automatically selected on transmit. Don't forget, however, to enable ATT on TX in Setup > General > Ant/Filters > Antenna. If you are using an external amplifier then, yes, you need a coupler, or you need an amplifier with a built-in ...

Another useful video on two element beamforming. It's easy to see how complex it can get with two matching dipoles.

You only need one if the laptop does not have a built-in GigE NIC, or if you need an extra one for your laptop. I have no specific recommendations.

Re: Gigabit Ethernet switch

I agree with Walter. However, if you have your heart set on a switch, it will need to be an unmanaged switch in order to use Bootloader to load firmware. And even then, not all unmanaged switches will work properly. If you do move forward with a switch, look for an unmanaged switch, in a metal case ...

Re: Orion Mk2 Board output power

Looking at the (scant) information available in the documentation for the transverter output, it looks to be nominally +10dBm, and not likely to be over +15dBm max., depending on how you calibrate the drive level in Thetis.
