Yes,

Oscar's code shows me the info I need to set the Bias-T. May have this working today, it's tough to keep going in this heat - 28C inside the house. I take George's lead and sleep during the afternoon. Out soon with George at 6AM 'cos it'll get too hot in an hour.

It is in my project queue. I can feed Simon with information about distinguishing one from another and controlling stuff RX666 does not have. One of the items in the project queue here has fallen into the recently done pile. So there is hope. Maybe I can get back to what I'd been doing in a week or so.

Re: SDR Console and RX-888 MKII #sdr-consolev3

I'm fighting something else so getting in to dig out the data will take me awhile.


There is a way to dive in and pull out the serial number. On my machine it is not reliable. But the EXTIO code uses another hook to determine type. As soon as I get eyes on that code again I'll try to deal with it and get you data.


Let's see if I read the questions correctly.

1. difference as in RX666, RX888, and RX888 MKII?

2. Um, API code? It seems the only way in at the moment is the EXTIO route. Anything else gets to use the Cypress USB API plus guesswork for addresses to use. The easy approach would be to build code to use EXTIO and never use it's GUI, do that part yourself feeding the values into the EXTIO with your own GUI.

Sven, did you take the steps I recommended to remove all SDR Play software and re-install it? I had a similar issue last year and this cleaned up things on my PC.


1. Disconnect all SDR play receivers from PC.
2. Un-install ALL SDR Play software, applications, drivers, API, etc.
3. Delete SDR Play definitions in Console
4. Reboot the computer
5. Re-install the SDR Play software.
     a. Make sure you do not plug in the receiver until directed to do so by the SDR Play software installation.
6. Check operation in SDR Uno
7. Add a new definition in Console and test

Hi Simon,

I hope all is well. I am wondering if there is a published list of Radio's which are supported via the Remote (over internet) feature of Sdr-Console? (And then, if they offer RX support and/or TX support). I have looked on the website but I couldn't find anything that made it clear. 

I have an ELAD FDM-DUO that I hoped to use IP Remote, but if that's not going to be possible then I want to know what other Transceivers I can use for my Remote station. 

Thanks in advance,
Pez

Looks like QRM from something nearby. Could be via the Coax, Antenna, or via (through) the plastic enclosure. Is the RXR
sitting next to the video monitor, or Vdc lines from a switching power supply or a UPS?

I have seen a bad ground connection in a USB cable ( open from one end to the other on the shield ) give terrible QRM. Have you tried a different USB cable?


I also had to wrap my RSP1A in copper foil to reduce external QRM sources. Not sure it the mfg applied any screening to the DX model.
From the image, it appears to about 350 KHz apart, which is little wider than the normal switching power supply QRM.

Re: Afedri AFE822X dual channel Diversity/phasing support?

daiche
 

As far as digital phasing, we may very well have the simplest solution right now. Instead of the SDR vendor software combining the two channels in the recording, they simply need to lay down the 2 channels in side by side streams in the RIFF file and build the software that can playback the 2 streams while at the same time providing variable digital delay to one or the other channel, all done after the recording process is done. This process needs to be standardized to allow any 'raw' 2 or more channel recordings to be digitally phased and played back after the fact.

Right now we lay down the SDR RIFF recording with a fixed phasing schema which 'freezes' the delay into the recording. Not doing that, opens up the possibility for variable digital phasing, after the fact.

I'll take a quick look tomorrow.

The RX888 actually doesn't have an API DLL or library as such, just a mass of code.

Well, the RX888 and RX888 MkII are supported. From the API I think they're the same thing..

Just to make clear, what I was talking about in my starter post:
Other than the RX888 the RX-888 MKII has a digital attenuator (PE4312) only for HF and a VGA (AD8370 [the RX888 has a fixed LNA!]) for both HF and VHF.
That means, the attenuation/amplification range of the RX-888 MKII is from -41,5 dB to +33 dB for HF and from 0 dB to +55 dB for VHF (as Jinze Peng wrote).

I don't know what the driver API allows for the RX888 and the RX-888 MKII, but for a fully supported RX-888 MKII I would expect:
1. Slider for attenuation -31,5...0 dB for HF only
2. Slider for gain -10...+33 dB (?) for HF and VHF (or even extended range, if the R828D allows additional gain stages!)
3. 2 checkboxes for HF- and VHF-Bias-T on/off

MKII features higher sample rates - at least.

Are there any plans to add this functionality to SDR Console?

It is in my project queue. I can feed Simon with information about distinguishing one from another and controlling stuff RX666 does not have. One of the items in the project queue here has fallen into the recently done pile. So there is hope. Maybe I can get back to what I'd been doing in a week or so.
