Subject: [sdr-radio-com] Console manual freq input

 

 

GE, as my Alien AMD system does not like the b38x versions, I cannot change the bands at my wish in the console.
Is there any way to manually input\substitute the 14035 khz in the xml files in the mean time Simon will drop a version more appetizing to the AMD system ?

Can I use an HAMACHI address instead of NO-IP.INFO for SDR-Console? I know this will restrict who has access.

Thanks

Hi Tracey

    The 1530 wasn't made for Lower end frequencies. 
There is a 1530+ model that does work well below
3mhz ( let me clarify this. The 1530 does receive below
3mhz., just not well for me ). The 1530L is a new
Model from wellbrook which has better man made noise rejection
Figures I'm looking for ( I live in RF hell ). Other folks have found
The 1530 works fine for their needs..but after listening to Simons L
Model I'm going to give it a try.

Are you saying that the 1530L will outperform your existing 1530 below 3MHz?

It works great! My ala-1530  really drops off below 3mhz . The 1530L smokes the 1530 noise

I also agree about 'zooming'.
There is a zoom button, or are you looking for something else?

Re: Keep current frequency always in the center?

Brandon Jordan <bcdx.org@...>
 

I agree that the ability to keep the tuned frequency centered should definitely be added. This is one of the biggest annoyances I have using the application.

I also agree about 'zooming'. There should definitely be the ability to zoom in on a frequency ala Perseus. It would also be very helpful to include peak markers similar to those in Spectravue (and Perseus).

Brandon

Looking at the waterfall, based on the bottom bar, I know where I am
at all times. I hated the way Spectra Vue locked it in the center.
That is why I used Winrad over it, then when SDR Console came along it
too didn't lock the frequency in the center.

There is only one good thing about Spectra Vue, its AM broadcast audio
is excellent.

The problem with locking the waterfall to the center frequency is when
it is an odd ball frequency, it is hard to eyeball the with accuracy
the other frequencies.

I do not want to loose this great concept, exactly the way it is!

Hi Everyone,

This is my first time posting here, so let me express my awe and
respect to Simon for his efforts and the great work he is doing
with SDR-radio. It is shaping up to be an amazing alternative for
RFSpace product users (like me) and I am sure to many other people
with different hardware.

Sorry if my question has been answered already, I searched but
could not find related posts.
So here goes my question - Is there a way to lock the currently
received frequency to always stay in the center of the
spectrum/waterfall (or more precisely the lock the spectrum around
the current frequency) ? Like in Spectravue, so when tuning the
receiver the spectrum is always centered around the current frequency?
I have searched around SDR-radio's options but could not find such
an option. At present the marker has to go over the edge of the
spectrum for it to jump to the next segment (+- 50 kHz ?!?). So
tuning around the bands is kind of "jumpy".

All the best,

Rado

PS. I am using SDR-radio with SDR-IQ.


Re: CW offsets

Peter Conway <peter@...>
 

Hi again,

I think I've solved my own question. I had'nt realised there was a
shift control nesting inside the width control! And that seems to be
easy to set up for the purpose of -/+ 1020hz and save - more
impressed with Simon!!

I also would like to see an option to put frequency in use to centre
of display, particularly useful for seeing what/or where the other
offset is.

Hi all,

Also I'm enjoying the fruits of Simon's labour with the SDR-Radio.

A question is how can I offset the shown frequency (CW-L/CW-U) to
1020hz -/+ then use the filter to narrow it right down. This is to
search for NDBs?

I see merit in both approaches.  Seems like this is a user preference which can be added as an option.
