Stream Deck with Thetis
Posted: Mon Jul 19, 2021 2:23 pm
I have had a few hams ask me about what I do with the Stream Deck controller and Thetis. I use it as user interface to send CAT commands to Thetis to do things such as changing parameters, memories, doing complete presets for different modes, change bands etc. Put Thetis in a carrier transmit mode for 2 seconds (for a tuner/amp).
One things I like to do is run RX1 at 192Khz sampling and RX2 at 1536KHz sampling, this gives me a zoomed in view on RX1 and the whole band view on RX2, with RX2 in CTUNE mode and RX1 in scroll.
With Thetis and Stream Deck I can only send CAT commands (Flex with FRStack uses JSON with the Stream Deck for full 2 way control).
So if I want to preset Thetis to 40M with RX2 showing the whole band the 40M button will:
Set RX1 Freq, Mode, NR2, TX Profile, Filter
Set Zoom Slider
Enable RX2
Set RX2 to center of the band
Turn off CTUNE for RX1
Turn on CTUNE for RX2
Here is what Thetis looks like with 2 zoom levels:
