Space weather text size

Hi Simon I use your map in a small window which I expand when needed. In the small window I use a large text size to have constant visibility of the space weather information. In the latest version the text size has become much smaller so that I can't now read it in the small window even on the 'Lar...

Re: RX888 working fine...then died!

Just an update on this... I returned my RX-888 and received a replacement. This took a long while since my returned RX-888 got stuck in Chinese customs. Luckily I had a good eBay supplier (topskyrc- recommended) who eventually sorted it out. The new RX-888 worked first time and it has been running s...

Re: Anan+SDRC- some observations and request for SSB help

Radio settings copied from my Thetis setup- these should be all OK. No RF feedback- this I have under control and I am pretty sure it is not the problem (noise is present even with drive=0). I have good audio now using the PC mic input, so I'll settle for that. I still feel there might be a setting ...

Re: Anan+SDRC- some observations and request for SSB help

No, no RF feedback at all. I've also have a lot of turns around a ferrite, just in case...

My headset also a gaming type Koss SB49.

Re: Anan+SDRC- some observations and request for SSB help

Here is the audio file- sorry used wrong format before. The silent parts are where I have pressed TX. The loud noise that I can hear clearly in my headset is not recorded.

Re: Anan+SDRC- some observations and request for SSB help

I was using a headset directly connected to the radio. The audio had strong background noises and sounded distorted whatever the setting. I could not get 'clean' audio. Yesterday I tried the headset through the PC and this gave much improved mic audio. The background noise had disappeared and VOX wo...

Re: Anan+SDRC- some observations and request for SSB help

Here are some sceenshots in TX and RX mode and the master gain settings.

Gains adjusted for each band to give 100 drive setting = 100W out

Equaliser not used so flat 0dB audio.

The main problems are the apparent poor audio quality as monitored and the loud noise on going to TX.

Re: Anan Pure Signal

I support this as well- it would be great to have Pure Signal available. However, there is some further work needed to tidy up TX issues for Anan. Several solid state amps now have an attenuated output suitable for Pure Signal and you can also make or buy a directional coupler.

Re: Anan+SDRC- some observations and request for SSB help

Hi Helmut I wouldn't say they were 'complaints', more observations about my own experiences. I have always had problems with PowerSDR and Thetis (both P1 and P2) with VAC audio on my 200D. So many times I lost the audio or it became unstable- I have tried all types of settings but none seem to give ...

Anan+SDRC- some observations and request for SSB help

I'm not sure how many Anan+SDRC users are out there- probably not many judging by the number of posts in this section. But here goes... I have just returned to using my Anan 200D with SDRC, encouraged by my experiences with the RX-888. In digital modes (FT8, FT4) it works beautifully well with SDRC....
