Fun with Waterfall ID and voice ID

Been playing around with the StreamDeck 15 I had been using with my Flex 6600M and now using it with Thetis to send canned voice ID's and waterfall ID's with a single button press.

Using a combo of SerialSend command line and SoundDeck commands in StreamDeck to key my 7000DLE, play a wav file via a designated Audio Device (VAC), and then unkey the 7000.

Ha! It was just more that I wanted to see what I could use it for that had wished was there. The WF ID is just fluff but kind of cool. just have to cobble a few things together but the Stream Deck is pretty handy to do this.

That is a really slick implementation Gary. This screenshot is from yesterday's chat. Hard to miss that in the waterfall! Congrats on hearing (in spite of the splatter from the QSO down below us) and working EI9O last night!

You know Rob, would it not be cool if we had a "reverse Pure Signal" where we could highlight one (one of many) of the pure crap signals out there and subtract all their IMD. It amazes me that absolute crap that comes out of some many stations, sure their BW is only 2.9KHz but they have IMD that goes 10Khz into their opposite sideband, let alone the carp in the sideband they occupy.

Watched one ham the other night that had IMD in the opposite sideband that was only 10dB down from his fundamental freq!

I'm sure Richie could come up with a nice "Reverse Pure Signal" feature but he needs some time off to recover from coding all the bug fixes and the new cool stuff he has already done, soooo... maybe we'll have to wait on that one! I admit that I do get a good laugh spotting guys with a nice 2.4 kHz filter sitting on a mountain of IMD products that stretch out 15 kHz wide. They're often quite smug about that filter and completely clueless about all the splatter going on outside their intended TX bandwidth.
