Re: Open HPSDR Hermes (14 bit ADC, EP3C25) Transceiver Card
Looking at the Keysight picture you posted it's hard to tell the characteristics of the peaks that appear beside the (was it?) 28.4 MHz signal. (The screen notation of 390 kHz is

Hello Simon, I had a choice between 6m EME and 6 and 4m with ‘normal’ antennas. I chose 6m EME but I am not so sure it was the right decision after recent storms. I have 6m/4m dual band antenna

Forgot to mention that in high amateur density areas in VHF contests for stations using high power there is a ‘code of conduct’. Perhaps if you have time you may want to watch this

Re: Open HPSDR Hermes (14 bit ADC, EP3C25) Transceiver Card
I suspect your specification is still beyond the state of the art. Is your transmitter that good?
It sounds like the 7300 is cleaner than average close in but has some issues

Conrad,
80m SSB DXing has died as death – despite excellent conditions very few people coming on. Are you on 4m – if so I’ll be testing my new legal limit amplifier this afternoon.

Re: Open HPSDR Hermes (14 bit ADC, EP3C25) Transceiver Card
Try listening in the 80m DX window in New England – AG1J uses a ~60 year-old SSB rig. Wide hardly starts to describe it, I think it’s a phasing exciter with obligatory after-burner.

OK, please refresh my mind what you mean by "clean". It certainly appears to be sending something much closer to pure signal concentrated within its intended bandwidth than most other

I KNOW for a fact that the IC7300 is not clean. Please provide me some evidence to the contrary. I have measurements with a R&S FSWP Signal analyser out to a 1MHz BW. You guys are looking in an SSB BW

I guess the filter tracking is generic to the HPSDR concept, let it be ANAN or Hermes.
Thanks for the info, good to know.
