Re: General question about Spectral Subtraction

Further research on the topic clarifies that NR2 is most definitely NOT spectral subtraction. Spectral subtractive algorithms are probably the simplest class of algorithms one might implement in the frequency domain, by far. While superior to time domain algorithms like LMS (least mean square, defi...

Re: Noise cancelling / Phasing using diversity

I assume that because my 80m Dipole had a large capture area, it worked adequately for my purpose. Is this a reasonable assumption? No. The reality is you simply got lucky. Since "diversity" in this context = beamforming, you were very luckily able to form a beam in the direction of the s...

Re: General question about Spectral Subtraction

Re: EDITED SCRIPTS! Activate your PTT with a mouse click or key stroke

Yes I know, I was playing with ncat just before Ernst released his tool. My idea was togle PTT using just one CAT command, but unfortunately I didn't found a command to do that. Yes, that's typical of the entire command structure. Two different commands for enable and disable of any function. Lucki...

Is that working a lot better and more naturally for you? No need to shout, BTW. You might consider editing the ALL CAPS in your posts back to upper and lower case.

Hi, Since I upgraded Thetis from 21K9 to v2.9.0.6, on all higher bands (17/15/12/10 meters) I see lot of spurs across the spectrum and "ADC overload" indicator keeps flashing while I increase the drive slider to Max 100. Reducing the drive slider would clear up the things. I even tried re...

Will this also return focus to the Window you were in after sending the space character, or does it leave focus with Thetis?

Then folks only need to complain about missing CAT commands (or how to write macros ;) ). A macro button facilit...
