Malahit DSP and DSP2
|
N2MS
Simon,
I do lots of outdoor listening when the weather cooperates and have stared using portable SDR receivers with the touch screen displays. You support the Afedri LAN-IQ SDR and have started to support the new Arinst SDR Dreamkit V1D. Would you consider supporting the Malahit DSP and DSP2? <https://malahiteam.com/> Thanks, Mike N2MS |

I believe the Malahit supports a subset of the Kenwood CAT protocol through
soapy library. Tuesday Oct 26, Malahiteam released their manuals in English for the original DSP1 and the DSP2: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1WiQdee4R8XBenx-E7PT3dPy4iDjbu0fR From: main@SDR-Radio.groups.io <main@SDR-Radio.groups.io> On Behalf Of N2MS Best regards, Larry WB6BBB |

The Malachit supports a very small subset of the Kenwood TS-480 command set. It supports reading the frequency and mode and setting only the frequency. It's severely limited in its scope. On the positive side, it's really quick to add CAT support! Bob W4RLS |

It does have an IQ output. Here a the blog entry discussing control via SDRUno

OK,
Then I need the API / programming document. I don’t see this on the website. The radios are not in stock I think?

Hi Simon,
I am not sure whether they are on stock but I know many hams who already bought one.
I have one too and will be happy to beta-test SDR-Console with it.
Kind regards

There is a pre-order system for the Malahit DSP2 receiver and a waiting list of some 8-10 weeks.
Georgiy RX9CIM seems to be the lead player in the trio of developers
His email address is as follows

Hi Sigi,
I am afraid I cannot (yet) recommend it. The reason is simply that I have not tested it enough.
I have upgraded the software which extends the frequency range to 2 GHz and also has improved its performance significantly. The free firmware is very limited.
I am planning to use the Malachite mainly as “IF” receiver, e.g. for the 740 MHz IF of my QO-100 setup but also as the IF receiver of my 122 GHz transceiver which is in work.
Once I had more time to test it on air I will give you a fair assessment / possibly a recommendation to buy.
Kind regards
Matthias

Simon,
I contacted Georgiy RX9CIM, the lead developer for the Malahit, via Telegram and asked for an API or documentation. He replied the CAT is fully compatible with the TS590 and the IQ output is like an audio cable, virtual.
If you want to contact him his email address is rx9cim@...
He prefers that you contact him via Telegram or Skype because he does not frequently check his email.
It sounds like the IQ output is similar to the USD IQ output for the IC-7300 which is just the audio baseband.
You haven't heard much from me this summer because I spend most of my time outdoors and operate or listen with various portable sets. When the weather gets cold I listen mostly indoors and like to control the radios with SDRC.
By the way, have you been able to look at the crashes produced when operating with my Afedri LAN-IQ SDR?
As always, I appreciate your work.

Hi Mike,
Thanks – I’ll not bother now, I’ll wait until the device is actually available then make a decision. Haven’t looked at the crash dump, maybe tomorrow. Been chasing my tail all day.

Simon,
Fine. It looks like the Malahit is another victim of the supply chain mess.

Not really - I plan to update the v3.1 public beta tomorrow, then spend a few weeks on the website while the code cools down. Then I have infrastructure to attend to for a few weeks.

When you have the time to spare, would a DSP2 on loan be any use? As David said there are several of us who now have these receivers. 73s Tracey G5VU ----- Original Message -----

I don't know that as I haven't tried coupling mine up to my pc yet. David might be able to help there. The maximum stand alone bandwidth is 192kHz. 73s Tracey G5VU ----- Original Message -----
