It's all about the Software

I can’t get VarAC to transmit and receive using SDR Console, Virtual Audio Cables or Omnirig connecting to the Hermes lite. Vara HF, I’m not sure what it is doing? Anybody ever get VarAC to work with SDR Console into Hermes? Struggling. Thanks.

Hello,

I have been using thetis quite a while and have it all dialed in with my HL2 and XPA125B. Band switching works great on thetis. Wanted to try sdr console. Seems pretty nice except I can't get it to change the band on the amp. The pin...

Hello,

I have been running thetis with HL2, fully loaded, for a while now. It works great, band switching the XPA-125B and all, but I want to try SDR Console. I have a couple SDR dongles I want to add to this setup to make a sweet SDR rig. But...

Hi

I am completely new to this forum, also to SDR Console.

I downloaded V3.3 and completed the installation. My HL2 was immediately recognised but on starting Console, no signals were received. Instead RF was immediately output on an unknown...

Hello! I'm working on my CW and I have a hardware keyer (winkeyer) for computer control and paddle control. I have noticed that when using it on the PTT/KEY jack on the front of the Hermes Lite that it always runs full power output. I was able to...

Hi

I am using the HL2 with the band-volt modification to automatically change the band on my linear amplifier (it sends a specific voltage per-band to the amp).

It's explained here:

This mod implements the PWM required with a code element in...

Copied pasted from HL2 Facebook group:
Jim Ahlstrom (designer of the filter board) has designed a general I/O board for the HL2. It allows things like amplifier/transverter interfacing, PureSignal input, dedicated receiver input and a few other...

I have a Hermes Lite 2 by EU1SW. I have a screenshot of the settings in PowerSDR, how to set it correctly in SDR Console?

Could a member show me how to configure SDR Console v3.2 with Fldigi - or tell me where to search in order to find the good procedure?
I want to use both softwares with my Hermes Lite 2.
I have already installed VB-Audio Virtual Cable and comOcom,...

A new user, I'm discovering SDR Console V3.2 with my HL2.
Is there somewhere a setting to allow a shortcut for the PTT command? I have chosen the space bar for this command in Quisk and it looks more convenient for me than having to point and click...

A new user of SDR Console V3.2 : how can you get this screen, I mean the full SDR Console screen with docked inside to the left and the right the two Transmit and Receive DSP panels? I went inside the help and found nothing.

Owner of a Hermes Lite 2 SDR radio, which I used until now with the Quisk software, I'm discovering SDR Console v3.2 and have one question about the use of HamBands.
The View - BandPlan - Editor menu allows us to modify the edges of the HamBands...

Hi all, First let me thank Simon for all the hard work in 3.0.26! Now to my issue, which may not be an SDRc issue. I now have a foot switch to change over from rx to tx. The first time I transmit after switching on HL2 The rx audio is muted and the...

The HL2 gateware from v69 up supports ICOM AH-4 tuner protocol. It does require building two level convertor circuits on the back panel of the transceiver but that is the easy part. Before I run off buying some fet's and building the level convertor...

I just wanted to tell Simon how much I have enjoyed using SDR Console. I downloaded the latest Beta and it seems it works even better with my Hermes Lite 2 than the release version. I swear that the Noise Reduction has improved too. I am amazed how...

Hi Simon,

just installed the 3.1 Build 2496 from January 26.

I just noticed that the n2adr relais are nolonger clicken when switching frequencies with following methods:

- RX Pane Frequency dial (Clicking or with Mouse Wheel on the digits)
-...

I have always been HL2 working with Spark SDR. Now running SDRC 3.1 with HL2 together with WSJT-X and all working fine. One thing I cannot figure out is how to hear WSJT-X over the pc speaker. I have now RX set to VB-Audio virtual cable. If I change...

Hi guys
I have a Black Radioberry board that comes from Aliexpress witch I testing out.

First with SDR-Console V3.1 2320 and it is same hardware as Hermes Lite RX works fine but when I hit TX nothing is transmitted, the PTT out on Radioberry works...

Hello,

I've bough a HL2 but I face issue with SDRConsole regarding the output power.
Basicaly i can't have more than 3W of output but I got 5W using Quisk.

I've tried to understand why and inspected network packet between my computer and my HL2...

Hi Simon

In chasing Roger's meters issue and also the VAC stuttering thing, I must have inadvertently messed something up but for the life of me I cannot see what.

Now I cannot get any audio to modulate the HL2 to transmit in any mode, Tune, Tone...

Another issue has occurred in tx. I have a linear amp after the HL2 on which there is a tx led. When using SDRc once in a few transmissions the tx led stays lit, so I tried with Thetis and the issue doesn't exist then.

Regards,

Roger.

Hi All,

After a 3 month hiatus, I now have my HL2 connected directly to the router and all is good with SDRc 3.1 except the tx meters. Only ALC functions with all the others not reading at all.

Any help appreciated.

Hi Simon

I'm using HL2 for the first time with low power output from HL2 RF1 to drive a transverter. I'm seeing some pretty weird behaviour.

So as a memory jogger, RF2 on the HL2 is actually labelled Ant and is the onboard 5W PA output (via...

Hi all,

Is there a way to activate/deactivate the Dither and Random functions for a HERMES board?
For the RX888 there are tick boxes, but for ANAN/HERMES I have not found anything comparable.
Maybe I have missed it?
If not, I guess I will add this...

I have one of the latest build HL2 transceivers connected to the latest SDR-Console. I use the K5FR VSP and the latest WSJT-X software. On all the bands from 80m to 10m I can operate the digital modes without issues. HL2 is set for 5W no , over...
