Re: Thetis 2.8.11 Released!

BUG REPORT for Thetis 2.8.11 It appears that, with both receivers on and SD engaged, RX2 is being tuned to 0 hz which is why, when I reported this earlier, I was seeing a spike on the panadapter and why, when tuning, the spike never changed locations. This is only for RX2 and only in stereo diversit...

Re: Let's Compare AGC Settings

Since I operate mostly cw can't really help with the slow AGC settings but would like to hear what folks have used for custom settings. Here is what I have set: slope 1 decay 20 hang 10 fixed (doesn't matter but 13) hang threshold 4th mark from left but I vary this on the panadapter My goal is to ha...

Re: RX2 issue

An update. Shortly after I wrote my post I went back to Thetis. Noticed I had stereo diversity turned on (the "SD" button below panafall for RX2). I turned that off and the signal went away and now I can receive signals via the antenna. This seems like a software bug to me. Thanks Ron N4XD

RX2 issue

Don't know if this is a hardware or software issue. Turned radio on yesterday and had no external signals on RX2. Did have a constant spike, even with no antenna connected. It doesn't change as the radio is tuned. I.E. Its in approximately the center of the panadapter and, as you tune it stays there...

Re: RX2 not same signal level as RX1

Thanks. That is very detailed and useful information.

I've requested the schematics, thanks for that tip.

Guess I'll have to dig into the radio a bit.

Will post an update when I have it.

Re: RX2 not same signal level as RX1

I did find an old HP sig gen to use. For the same level of receive signal (I arbitrarily chose S5) it took a -90dbm signal into ant 1 for rx1 to get the S5 receive signal. For RX2 it took -40dbm so obviously there is an issue somewhere with RX2. Any help troubleshooting this will be greatly apprecia...

Re: RX2 not same signal level as RX1

All good questions. I have swapped cables and no change. I.E. not a cable problem. I split the signal using a bnc T. Not ideal but for this, fine since its not a permanent set up. No, don't have a sig gen but there were a few very loud signals on the band so the difference was easy to see. Wondering...

RX2 not same signal level as RX1

Setup Anan 7000dle Mk2 Thetis V 2.8.9 64 bit Antenna: a receive array. For this test the receive antenna output is sent to both RX1 and RX2. RX1 uses ant 2 input (and is set up in the antenna page) and the antenna for RX2 is connected to the Anan RX2 jack on the back. I've checked and double checked...

Re: Seq Errors Explained

The set up: Anan 7000dle Mk2 Thetis V 2.8.9 CPU older i7 running at 2.89Ghz or such W10 Was having lots of sequence errors which caused audio glitches. To solve this I used a windows program called prio (can get it, or one that does the same thing here: https://www.raymond.cc/blog/permanently-set-pr...

Re: Thetis 2.8.9 Released! Installed with no issues.

To all responsible for this latest update, and removing the AVX requirement, THANK YOU!! The 64 bit installation, on my computer using an Intel 870 i7 (obviously an older cpu), went smoothly, quickly, and without hitch. I've not had a chance to "wring it out" but in checking a couple thing...

Re: Ideal AGC Settings?

I also am working to optimize the agc settings for working weaker dx typically on the low bands (160 and 80). What I would find very useful is a description of each of the adjustments when using the custom setting. And how do they affect the signal being received. While I have experimented with each...

Two midi controllers at same time?

Is it possible to have 2 controllers connected to the Anan (in my case the 7000dle Mk2) at the same time controlling different things in Thetis?

Thanks

Re: Which one? Anyone compare them?

I'm a recent owner of an Anan 7000dle. I wanted to add a midi controller to have some hard controls for the radio. I found and bought one ofthe smaller DJ controllers like the one in the 2nd posting above. For me there were 2 determining factors; price and number of knobs. The smaller Hercules contr...

Re: First Attempt with AMP Running

I too am just starting with Pure Signal. Using Thetis with a 7000dle.

Where do you read the step attenuator with Pure Signal?

Thanks
