Simon's World Map

Mike Bott
 

Simon,

The next time you decide to update your World Map app, can you set up a way to shift the Title Tags to either the right as they are now, or to the left?  This will allow the tags to placed a bit more out of the way of locations one would want to see.

Thanks!

Expiration question 3.0 build 1181

Russ Johnson
 

Hello,

I have V 3.0 build 1181.  It was compiled on Jun 21, 2018 and expiration Jun 21, 2020.

Does this mean that the software will stop working on Jun 21, 2020?

The reason I ask is that I thought I saw a FAQ that said the software wouldn't expire but just keep running.   So I was a bit confused by the expiration notation on the software.

I would appreciate it if anyone could clarify that for me.

Thank you!!


Re: Frequency zoom using the mouse wheel opens numeric input window #bug

Auto-repeat is a *legacy* Windows feature, a Stone Age abomination invented for dumb terminals and early OS keyboards before anyone thought of adding modifier keys besides Shift.
 
Auto-repeat is slow (maybe dozens of key-press events instead of 2, 3 or 4), resource-greedy (Windows messages), imprecise (without a target it's trial-and-error), prone to overshoot, and (most importantly) makes you look really stupid like Dilbert's Boss.
 
Auto-repeat is for lazy critters who can't be arsed to learn how to do a job properly (quickly, efficiently, predictably, accurately, and safely).
 
My use of it is restricted to days when I feel more brain-dead than usual, or had too much to drink. The latter too often ends with falling asleep over the keyboard and buggering up my document with 4 GB unwanted body text.

Updated my MB & yes, all Retevis websites come up with a Trojan. Strange. Only  one that works is Alixexpress, of course.

I have not gotten a hit with MB from it at all. That's confusing.
Looks like a good little QRP Shackinthebox.
I have looked over many receiver specs & yes, they are lower, but all I find are specced with preamps on. Also, this may be the FM spec, which is usually higher. Just wondering.

Or the other way around perhaps, with double tap Shift to bring up the Freq dialogue, because Ctrl+ (Key) is used for so many other Windows functions.

Would also (Simon?) possibly clear the way for keyboard shortcut to zoom the waterfall/spectrum display with the Windows standard key combo Ctrl + (Numpad+/Numpad-), like Google Maps and many others for example?

Cannot connect to Spyserver #airspyr2

John Boyle N8JJO <n8jjo@...>
 

Hi, still trying to connect SDR Console to my Spyserver/AirspyR2/Spyverter. I have uninstalled program, have reset program, have tried a new identity. SDR Colsole finds my Spyserver, but I continue to get "Radio not found or definition invalid" on the Radio Select screen. This Spyserver does work perfectly with SDR#. Screenshot attached.

Any assistance greatly appreciated!

Yep ! I know that SDR-Console is the best out there so insisted ...and probably soved ... the problem was in the SPF-08 pre-selector. I connected the antenna directly to the S2 and removed the SPF-08. All is now working great ! Does this make sense?

Re: Possible Fix For Stuttering / Slowdown #sdrconsolev3 #possibly

Hmmm... Totally opposite of the issue I had before Simon spent a week on the Server software. I had to open a browser (Chrome) and surf the web for stutter free audio/video. But since his rework of the Server software, not an issue anymore, In fact I can run a server via WiFi, both on the host and client computer and still no issues. Even from a hotel WiFi too!
